one forum has taken to calling it "the panslopticon" and...it's accurate

Replaced sudo with run0 and I'm very happy to have one less setuid binary to worry about.

GHC's wasm backend now supports Template Haskell and ghci

A summary of the current support status of Template Haskell and ghci in GHC's wasm backend, explaining how it's implemented and laying out potential future improvements.

By the way, the legendary #Serokell, the #Rust, #Nix and #Haskell company can onboard one #enterprise customer.

Living in #London, I hear a lot of #tech horror stories. If your company concerns itself with code quality and speed of delivery, #Serokell is your choice.

Ask me about whom to talk to get a quote.

Want an example of a broken system? Florida DIDN’T “reject” the proposal to include a right to abortion in the constitution — they voted 58.2% in favor of abortion rights. But it needed 60% to pass, so it failed WITH A MAJORITY.

Can’t imagine what Florida women must be thinking.

Talk about a grotesque invasion of privacy:

"Smart TVs from Samsung and LG take screenshots of what you are watching even when you are using them to display images from a connected laptop or video game console"

https://www.newscientist.com/article/2449198-smart-tvs-take-snapshots-of-what-you-watch-multiple-times-per-second/

How can this possibly be legal?

Here's why: Congress isn't just indifferent to your privacy. It is actively complicit with big corporations -- and law enforcement -- in embedding surveillance into everything we do.

Smart TVs take snapshots of what you watch multiple times per second

Smart TVs from Samsung and LG monitor what you are watching even when you are using the screens to display a feed from a connected laptop or video game console

#Haskell is a great language to write prototypes, and then put them to production.

Sometimes I use AI LLMs for software development. But the imo biggest contribution to computer science started in the 1930s when people like Gödel, Turing and Church built the foundation for modern Typesystems and the Curry–Howard correspondence when working on Hilberts Entscheidungsproblem.
This resulted in the possibilty to reason about problems beyond imagination and to write proofs instead of programs.

tl;dr Don't talk to AI, talk to advanced typesystems like in #haskell or #rustlang

Why is #rustlang so complicated!?
