Bought myself a bottling kit, and now I’ve gone mad with power

I'm collecting donations so that we can buy it and force everyone to call it the "Naming Right Sponsor Stadium"

It's really fun watching the work on OCaml unfold at JS!Here's a fun one: work on a more efficient way of representing optional types, so you don't always have to take an indirection in the "Some" case. github.com/ocaml-flambda/…

More companies should do this.

Today I made a wood veneer laptop sticker!

writing good tests is nondeterministic

Signed distance functions (SDFs) are fundamental tools in graphics, vision, and physics simulation. But how do you get a high-quality SDF from messy, real-world input? At #SIGGRAPH2024, we introduced a simple method for turning "broken" geometry into a well-behaved SDF. <🧵>

it has been [0] days since our last "bug caused by OCaml's inclusive-end for loop" incident

OCaml is a functional programming language, and means that if you want to early-return from a function or break out of a loop, you get to choose between using exceptions for control flow and littering your code with mutable references

Hopefully my last post on this site: Find me on the other blue website!

Fun fact: CAMLBOY performance was used as benchmark from the very beginning of development on Wasm_of_ocaml!

In 2014 while I was an intern on the Dart Language team, Google hired Erik Meijer as a consultant to work on the async / await compiler. Erik is an world class expert in this domain, but was unfamiliar Dart, so they... (continued in post) tyoverby.com/thoughts/centa…
