In light of all the recent decisions made, I've decided to wind down activity here now. I can't use this platform in good conscience, and will be moving to Mastodon. You can find me at @ocharles@mastodon.social. Peace ✌️ mastodon.social/@ocharles

A new Haskell coverage report tool is ready to try out! github.com/NorfairKing/dekki… If you've been looking forward to try it, please have a look. I would be happy with any feedback.

Write your tests purely in terms of the public API, you will thank yourself 😭

I'm exploring replacing a project's use of "lens" with "optics". Does anyone know how I traverse over a lens (not a traversal)? In lens this is `traverseOf`, but `traverseOf` in optics requires `Applicative f` (but `Functor f` is enough).

Huge news for Haskell today: our WASM backend has been merged into GHC! Compared to our older "Asterius" work, the result is greater speed and support of advanced runtime features. 🚀 tweag.io/blog/2022-11-22-was…

"Of course I am not Qatari, I am not an Arab, I am not African, I am not gay, I am not disabled,” he added. “But I feel like it, because I know what it means [..], to be bullied, as a foreigner in a foreign country. As a child I was bullied – because I had red hair and freckles"

Incredible. Not liking this current trend of constantly one-uping each other on behind so incredibly detached from reality

Whenever I visit London I’m fascinated by the distinctive sound of the Jubilee Line trains accelerating. Last time I visited, I thought of the idea to turn it into a pad, and it has now become a staple sound in one of my current game projects.
