No user record in our sample, but bgamari has activity below (stories or comments). Likely we have partial data — the full bulk-load will fill profiles in.

I'm not sure what you mean by this. `cabal-install` is quite deterministic; you can even freeze the index date for full build plan determinism. The largest challenge in this area is the fact that core libraries'…
GHC is indeed a large piece of software and, like all software, has its share of bugs. Some of these bugs are indeed attributable to GHC's complexity or, rather, the complexity of its domain: compiling high-level…
That is correct. The problem is only triggered by very particular patterns of integer operations which happen to get lowered to C-- where an operand is bound to a local register; this register then gets inappropriately…
Yes, as well as excellent abstractions for putting those threads to work. See [parallel](https://hackage.haskell.org/package/parallel), [async](https://hackage.haskell.org/package/async), and…
> The iterative version in a number of languages is 10 lines, but the functional version needs some way of drilling down into an array in a mutable way (a monad) in order to make it match the iterative in performance…
Isn't this just a reinvention of Canonical JSON [1]? There were efforts [2] to standardize it, although it seems this fizzled out. [1] http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Canonical_JSON [2]…
As someone who recently, despite my better judgement, dropped a non-negligible amount of money on a 802.11ac adapter bearing a Broadcom chipset, I will readily say that I will never buy another of their wireless…
If you are considering the XPS 15, you might also look at the E7470. I have been using one of these as my primary machine for several months now and have been quite impressed. The high-DPI display is fantastic, it's…
Give the Latitude E7470 a shot. I recently switched to one with very similar specs to the XPS 13 and have been very happy with it: Great screen, solid keyboard, 7 hour battery life, and built like a tank.
> I'm looking forward to trying out the new debugging support: gdb was unusable with older GHCs. Indeed; it should be slightly better now but as the documentation says, there are still plenty of rough edges. I certainly…
Hmmm, I've noticed this in the PDF output but haven't yet seen anything similar in the HTML output. Could you point me at a specific example?
Correct.
Most (essentially all) personal electronic devices charge with a fixed supply voltage (often 5 volts) and will draw up to some current. The product of current and voltage is power. Since we have fixed voltage, the power…
