I read that algae actually makes up more of what we know as oil than decomposed dinosaurs.

Edit: the source of that tidbit. He does a cool demo at the beginning.

Thanks. I’d certainly like it if you posted it. more Nix = more better. :)

Like the Holographic Universe?

Reading that lead me to read the MUCH more interesting but FAR from easy to decode: Wholeness and the Implicate Order

Please share this if you don’t mind.

 

The most recent release of GHC includes a technology preview of a WebAssembly backend. This allows Haskell code to run in many new contexts.

GHC's WebAssembly backend is based on an earlier research compiler called Asterius. In this talk, Cheng Shao, the main author of both projects, presents an introduction to WebAssembly and why compiling Haskell to it is different than other platforms. The talk includes many details about why the backend is the way it is, along with instructions to work on it.

This talk was presented at the 2023 GHC

Contributor's Workshop in Rapperswil, Switzerland, colocated with Zurihac. The workshop was arranged by the Haskell Foundation, OST Eastern Switzerland University of Applied Sciences, and the GHC development team.

Cheng Shao is a full-time software engineer at Tweag, where he has been working since 2018. His main contribution to GHC is the WebAssembly backend, which grew out of his early research project, a Haskell-to-WebAssembly compiler codenamed Asterius. He focuses on maintaining the GHC WebAssembly backend, adding new functionality, as well as other GHC work that involves code generation and the runtime system.

My daughter’s smile.

 

I've seen a bit of chatter recently in the PS community about dependent types. Many of us that have been using PureScript for years love it because of its simplicity and elegance, and there has been resistance in the community to build out the complexity, both syntax-wise and implementation-wise, of a full-blown dependently-typed language à la Idris and Agda.

But another reason that there's not much community momentum behind adding dependent types to PureScript is because PureScript already has dependent types 😁

Do you honestly think the people running for office are capable of “handling” this any differently?

This comment changed my life. Thanks.

I used to think json was the best until I found json lines or line delimited json. Thank me later. I use it all the time. You can append until you’re blue in the face. It’s great for log files. Each line is a valid json file.

You laugh but that’s exactly what Erlang is (from my admittedly cursory observation of it). It’s a pretty powerful concept if you EXPECT every process to error and use that idea for control flow.

I think they had far more nefarious reasons than that. They intentionally try to divide themselves from the other corporate party to keep us (the poor) infighting. It was a simple exercise in branding.

Let’s put it this way: If this were the WWF, they were chosen to play the role of the Undertaker so we’d fight hard for Hulk Hogan despite Hulk Hogan being good friends with the Undertaker (indeed working WITH the undertaker all along) to take away our basic freedoms. They like to show us the blatant evil so that we’ll accept the fake good guys as our allies.

I’ve been thinking a lot about this. Another way might be for a Lemmy instance to run a stake pool from the same machine. They could offer perks to users while also not requiring donations directly. Perhaps even reward users with the pool’s native tokens for every post they submit or something (this is a great place to bring up the drawbacks and very real issues that offering a perverse incentive can have: Cobra Effect).

The tech chosen is a key decision(in this case Cardano would be my recommendation honestly because I prefer the tech and not because I have a bag of it) because that stake pool could mint native tokens and use those as a currency for use on their instance if we used Cardano. Native tokens on Cardano are cheaper and not subject to the same fees as other (ERC-20) chains to use and mint. So it would allow that instance to have its own native currency with very little overhead.

Look at Kbin’s old code. There’s some mention of Cardano wallets on there so I’m guessing that the creator of that was interested in this idea.

No problem. I hope others can be more helpful. I’m most often interested in working with a virtual condom over top of JavaSvript. 😜

The making of the Hydra Doom experience.

I find it fascinating that Doom’s “determinism” (identical inputs will produce identical results in the gameplay) makes it possible to encode entire playstreams on-chain and have each of them compete against each other. Detractors of Cardano may accuse it of being relatively slow due to its high security on layer 1 compared to Solana, but layer 2’s like Hydra make that decision to prioritize determinism and statelessness look visionary when the roadmap is unfolded. Extended UTXO is paying off when it comes to parallelism.

Hats off to the Hydra team!

Ps. Yes. Technically I know it is not running Doom. Nonetheless this is a great demonstration of the power of the Hydra zk roll up tech.

A Fireside Chat with Input | Output & the Cardano Foundation' from Rare Evo 2024. Thank you to Charles, J.J. Siler, Chief of Staff, Input | Output and Giorgio Zinetti, CTO at Cardano Foundation for their engaging discussion at #RareEvo24.

 

This guy is absolutely incredible. He does a great job at breaking down advanced concepts into understandable and even entertaining content; an absolutely brilliant engineer undoubtedly but also great at making videos.
