RELEASE DAY After almost 10 years of hard work, tireless research, and a dive deep into the kernels of computer science, I finally realized a dream: running a high-level language on GPUs. And I'm giving it to the world! Bend compiles modern programming features, including: -

Ping me if you know someone with professional experience using (ideally all 3 of): Haskell, PureScript & Nix in production who is currently looking for a job.

Every year the Oregon Programming Language Summer School covers advanced topics in programming languages, such as type systems, formal verification, category theory, proof theory. Most of the lectures are recorded and available online (link in the reply).

When you switch from object-oriented to declarative programming things get dramatically simpler. A small, practical example is Radio Buttons. The noise about “exclusivity groups” goes away when the button’s state is a pure function of the app state. pyedifice.github.io/stubs/edifice.…

I recently released a new CLI tool `cloudy`. It makes it easy to spin up temporary compute instances on various cloud providers. I'm trying to make it feel similar to `docker run` or `vagrant`, but for running one-off applications in the cloud: github.com/cdepillabout/c…

I wrote a short blog post introducing Cloudy: functor.tokyo/blog/2024-09-2…

I put together an example repo of how to build a fully statically-linked x86-64 Linux #Haskell binary using #Nix. Everything is documented, so you should hopefully be able to use this to get started with static linking: github.com/cdepillabout/e…

Charles Nguyen Matti Palli 🧙‍♂️ It's funny that nobody who studies maths has any problem learning what a group is. A monad is just a simple algebraic structure. Learn the definition. Study some examples. That's it. It's a sign that CS hasn't grown up yet that folks still make a big deal about monads.

As true Fourth Reich understanders will know, the superstructural shifts at the surface level ushering in Real American Fascism simply reflect the tectonic movements deep in the economic base. “Events” are the spectacle’s way of rolling out the Official Narrative.

No nation, large or small, can be indifferent to the fate of others, near or far. Modern economics, weapons, & communications have made us realize more than ever that we are one human family & this one planet is our home. - JFK
