CI should just run on each developer's machine. As in, each developer should have a local instance of the CI setup in a VM or a docker container. If tests pass, the result is reported to a central server.

Thanks for mentioning this. I think I encountered Geometric Algebra in a video related to making video games. It's this one (Why you can't multiply vectors): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=htYh-Tq7ZBI

What do you define as a production compiler? Two related languages have compilers built in Haskell: PureScript and Elm. Also, Haskell has parsers for all major languages. You can find them on Hackage with the `language-` prefix: language-py

Or it just they didn't think they can make it on their own, so they didn't develop the necessary expertise.

But you can't write OCaml as if it were Python because the language won't let you or make it hard for you. Add to that JS's internal processes that won't let you. So, by design of the language and JS's internal stru

He was suggesting that you try different models for the same thing and see which output you like best. It's tedious but at least you get an answer.

From what I remember, the task consisted of several lines of shell and just would just choke at some point. I think it was because I used a new line to visually separate code. I'm not sure, I don't remember exactly as it was some

I keep meaning to investigate how I can use your tools to create single-file executables for Python projects, so thanks for posting and reminding me.

Thanks for mentioning mise. I'm more interested in it for the task running feature. I couldn't figure out how to have shell scripts in Justfile, so I gave up on it.

Oh, I missed that. I also missed that about StackOverflow, although I wasn't active there. It sounds like the motto of SO was "Solve problems!" instead of "Teach people how to solve problems!".

It can also do that if you ask it. It can give you exercises that you can solve. But you have to specifically ask, because by default it just gives you code.

If we're talking about solving an equation, for example, it's not hard to memorize. Actually, that's how most students do it, they memorize the steps and what goes where[1]. But they don't really know why the algorithm w

I would expect people to be more comfortable with discrete math, because we are more used to thinking of separate things as opposed to things without a boundry, so to say. There are exceptions to the latter, of course, like air, warmth, rai

The way I like to picture the IO monad is you don't have direct access to the values coming from IO. You can only give the monad some functions which it applies to the values. Among these functions there are some that tell the monad to

The version limits come from the fact that the Nix cache doesn't maintain older versions. So, if you use an older version, you will have to compile from sources. It sounds like they didn't want to take it upon themselves and provi

Funny, but I remember the difference between `>>=` and `>>` even though I haven't written Haskell in a couple of years. `>>=` passes to the right the value coming from the left, while `>>` drops it. To give an e

It's funny, because your comment made me go back and click the link. If it was some motivational speech, I wasn't interested (that's why I didn't click initially). But I actually listen to instrumental DJ sets and Cercle
