   That's where something like Fossil is nice, because the tickets are part of the repo.

   Nice to see that HN is coming to its senses and people are realizing the flaws and BS in AI / LLMs. We are past-peak Bitcoin / NFT on the curve and I can't wait for this wave to end and move to the next thing.

   I mean, good choice, but you see the point, right? As much as ANSI CL has it's flaws, it has a standard, as much of a mixed bag it might be. Scheme is just a general potpourri of "we kinda have a guideline, but do whatever".

    ANSI CL is such a breath of fresh air nowadays. Does what you need, doesn't get in your way, comes with batteries included. And conditions are just god-tier.

    Which Scheme are we talking about? R5RS? R7RS-small? R6RS? With SRFIs? Without? Which scheme? Is it `(library...)` or `(define-module...)`?

    Exactly. And when writing your own engine, you _should_ type these lines to render a triangle definitely by hand, to understand what is being done and then use that input to build the right abstraction so one doesn't have to type it ov

    I highly doubt it was ever really bottlenecked by typing speed. If _that_ is your bottleneck then you either don’t care about what you write or you have a perfect plan laid out and just need to type it in.

    I don't think that analogy holds. Within Civ, you are in one game. Playing 4 instances of Civ, or better: 4 instances of 4 different games is more likely the comparison.

    So, hands-off meaning "just let the AI cook and don't check it"? Either you follow everything it does, revise the plans, do the code review, manual adjustments, etc, or you run sessions in parallel, not being that attentive a

    And then Anthropic has an outage and you what...have a coffee break until then? All that time babysitting the AIs just to be a little faster but probably with less knowledge/control over what they did?

    Exactly, the amount of patches needed in many FreeBSD or other BSD ports just to appease the Linux-centricity is bonkers. And many times the changes aren't even that grave.

    Without a system prompt no. And in general they “know” nothing and just predict the next best word.

    "haskell user smart". Condescend much? And Haskell baking itself to Nix, also not sure if that is a good option. Try compiling that on say OpenBSD or FreeBSD.

    Preferably there would be more implementation. But if they only implement the "standard" language, it will be missing a lot of things. That is the point! It's not Haskell anymore. It's Glasgow Haskell. It's its own

    Again, those are _GHC_ extensions, not "standard" Haskell. At this point it's not Haskell, it's Glasgow Haskell. And those features are not a library that you just throw in, they are compiler specific.

    But...so does the tech sector. They will also have to continually upgrade their AI slop data centers to run newer better models, generating a heap of waste along it. And that money has to be made back.

    I think the GHC directives are what hurts Haskell the most. At this point they should just embrace the GHC extensions and make it the "official" Haskell. Having to enable them in the code is just a hassle. Just make it official an

    They definitely do embrace merging AI slop now, so they might even take pull requests.

    This. A while ago I made some blog posts[1] diving into the source code of OpenBSD and FreeBSD (shameless self plug), but haven't had the time recently to write more. Being able to understand the system, or at least being able to take

    Still better than an error message with pretty much zero info.
