quickjs [1] has native support for Cosmopolitan, is meant to be easily embeddable, and is included as part of the standard Cosmopolitan distribution. It looks like qjs also has patches for recent-ish versions of the…
Yes! With spork/netrepl and Conjure in Neovim https://janet-lang.org/api/spork/netrepl.html https://github.com/Olical/conjure
Apparently there's also a data processing library for Nim called Arraymancer[0] that's inspired by Numpy and PyTorch. It claims to be faster than both. [0] https://mratsim.github.io/Arraymancer/
Some people don't like systemd because it rolls a bunch of other functionality beyond 'just init' into a giant monolithic beast. The advantage is that distro maintainers are able to present an extremely usable and…
If it is indeed a union mount mechanism, then that's truly a remarkable feature. Reading the documentation makes it sound like something akin to an symbolic link but perhaps not in the actual filesystem; I still can't…
Like a union mount?
export VAR="$VAR:whatever else"
The problem isn't with the mathematical concept of monads, it's that Monad is a typeclass in a hierarchy along with other totally abstract category theoric classes introduced at different stages and people use them with…
Well said. This is exactly my gripe with Haskell monads. There are too many places where the hierarchy isn't uniform and there are a bunch of special monads like IO and List. It leads to the same ambiguous "is a"…
The profusion of Category-theoric abstractions and some of the more recent purely functional norms in Haskell are like the PhD-level version of `AbstractVisitorContextFactoryBuilder` which, aside from all the…
I believe the 'problem' that it solves is universal network transparency between pieces of anything. It's a library that can be used from basically any language that has a C FFI on any system with a C compiler to do IPC…
In addition, every closure is also a 'state container,' as it were. This is how some functional languages e.g. Erlang emulate mutation. A function holds the desired state in a closure and evaluates to a new function…
In my state, most of the programs the community colleges offer are aimed either at credential acquisition or for transfer to a university; there are no four year programs. However, many of the teachers at these schools…
When I first heard of this, I was also quite intrigued. But I wonder if it might actually be vulnerable to some of the darker patterns of human 'social markets' if implemented in its freest form; we already have…
My point is that mv is a compiled C program, not a shell builtin or piece of shell syntax, that you may nonetheless call in a shell script to extend the functionality of the shell. rename is another such compiled C…
By your own logic, your own UNIX solution to the file renaming problem is "not shell" since it uses the mv "utility". Or do you mean rename is not POSIX? The shell language certainly is lacking for almost anything…
Linux, at least, has rename(1) where you can just use the same syntax as Windows ren.
Just out of curiosity, what was the purported outcome/why wasn't it worth it?
I once made something similar after reading a blog post here on HN [1] just to see how easy it is to make something like this. Mine [2] uses passphrases to generate keys with the Argon2 algorithm and then uses NaCl's…
By MIT scheme, do you mean MIT/GNU scheme? A few schemes implement their debuggers in terms of call/cc (or delimited counterparts) and exceptional conditions like errors or breaks hand control to a new 'depth' of REPL…
Already been patched in any case. https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/commit/50c0cf885...
In context, I believe the author means that having a build system which splits into independent, simultaneously executing processes (such as `make -j 5` or some such) tends to have an advantage over ASDF's monolithic…
Yeah, it only teaches you about term rewriting, boolean logic, iteration vs. recursion, algorithm complexity, higher-order functions, data structure design, closures, generics, statefulness, environments, mutability,…
Worse is better/creative limitation/blub paradox: Smalltalk, like Lisp, is too powerful; you can do essentially anything you desire in a bunch of different ways. Too much flexibility makes it harder for a clear use case…
