I think the parent may be getting at the continuation aspect of effects? Effect systems make the stack a first class object you can reuse, I think a standard example is implementing a scheduler. I'm not familiar with…
OCaml has full multicore support with algebraic effects now. The effect system makes things like async very nice as there's no function "coloring" problem: https://discuss.ocaml.org/t/ocaml-5-0-0-is-out/10974 But I…
For a computer, text is a binary format like anything else. We have decades of tooling built on handling linear streams of text where we sometimes encode higher dimensional structures in it. But I can't help feel that…
This reminds me of expect tests in OCaml[0]. You create a test function that prints some state and the test framework automatically handles diffing and injecting the snapshot back into the test location. It helps keep…
I will say I really love the outcome of a Nix development environment. Especially with nix-direnv having a reproducible build environment by doing git clone on any machine is amazing. NixOS has also saved my ass a…

Intentional Software was working on a system like this many years ago: https://youtu.be/tSnnfUj1XCQ?t=230 Part 2: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ZZDwB4-DPXE You can project your programs into different views and add lots…
I buy into this theory, and the other one about consciousness being a step or two behind and fabricating some cohesive explanation for why you did what you did. If you are unfortunate enough to experience some human…
This brings back memories. I ordered a NerdKit many years ago and one of the projects was making a scrollable LED panel using similar techniques you're describing: http://www.nerdkits.com/store/NKLEDARRAY001/ Multi…
I've also had floaters and sometimes flashes (pin pricks) of light since childhood. Still have 20/20 vision, and every time I've gotten an eye exam they've said the retina looks healthy. From what I understand it'll be…
I've been keeping an eye on https://github.com/cozodb/cozo which is pretty close to something I've wanted, a sqlite version of datalog/datomic.
If you do take the teleporter it mentions that as well: > Your three choices show that this is what you see as central to your sense of self, not any attachment to a particular substance, be it your body, brain or soul.…
I appreciate you sharing your story. I had a similar journey over the last couple years because of the pandemic. Looking back now it was definitely an issue at least as far back as early teens. I used to work out a lot,…
I believe it is the same. Tim's Twitter has a lot of references to it: https://mobile.twitter.com/TimSweeneyEpic/status/15955006213... https://mobile.twitter.com/TimSweeneyEpic/status/16021821207... You can find more…
It's cool to finally get some more details on this language. They showed some slides of it being used in Fortnite last year: https://mobile.twitter.com/saji8k/status/1339709691564179464... I believe it has roots in (but…

Is there a note taking app/knowledge database that auto-magically tags + adds metadata to everything and is searchable? I've tried many different tools in the past and I find I can't stay organized. I don't want to sit…
I think you're correct in this assessment. I've recently switched from many years of low-level programming, doing real time animation/graphics into the large scale SaaS world. The things these two camps of software…
I think that's could be focusing too much on the "inner voice" and assigning that the "you" label. At least for me I have a normally chatty inner voice, and usually think of that as "me", but if I step back I realize…
I've often wished for some kind of dream recorder. I have had some very intense dreams, even "inception" style where I fall asleep inside a dream. In these dreams I'll talk to witty people, hear incredible music, see…
It's surprisingly general purpose. I mostly use it for toy side projects. I've used it for basic CRUD apps, like a reddit aggregator. I've written a couple opengl graphics libraries with it. Used it instead of JS for a…
The S,D shortcuts work for me, but I can't get J or K to do anything? Some UX feedback on what is valid at the current time may be useful. One problem with structural/projection editors is it's not as clear what is a…
I don't know of any generic editor that can take a current (popular) language and do that. There is however a lot going on in this space, and I'll list some examples. Most are about editing the tree structure better,…
I would also note it seems to work very well on Android Firefox in desktop mode.
If you go to about:support and scroll to the end of the graphics section you should see two entries: X11_EGL DMABUF and should say something like "available by default"/enabled or similar wording. Otherwise it'll either…
