Thinking more about ways to get a #bootstrappable build of the #Haskell compiler GHC:

(and hoping that someone else either has better ideas, or more stamina, to pull this through.)

Implementing the meat in Rust and then making high-quality bindings for other languages (high quality = exposing UX traditional for this language) is definitely the correct way.

I can’t imagine why anyone would want to _port_ anything to a different language, especially to Haskell, ESPECIALLY cryptography.

Collective memory on the internet is wild. Some of us are old enough to remember Twitter!! It was a whole thing for over a decade. Learn your history

@jonn @hecate As someone who spent some time trying to port cryptographic libraries from Rust to Haskell... I just gave up and decided to wrap the Rust libraries via the FFI. If Haskell wants to stay a higher-level language where you drop down to the FFI for performance, that's fine, though it does make me sad.

If Rust had a good capability-safe approach to managing side effects I might not come back to Haskell at all. As it is, the slow demise of Safe Haskell has me thinking that maybe there's not that much here for me anyway.

The mass shooting in Allen, Texas this past weekend was horrific. The message behind should add to our collective concern. I explain the history behind the terrifying letters that the shooter wore, in today’s piece. https://open.substack.com/pub/statuskuo/p/rwds-a-massacre-in-texas-and-a-warning?r=1zr8b&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web

#Zelenskyy signs decree for Ukraine to celebrate Europe Day on May 9

🇺🇦 Ukraine will celebrate Europe Day instead of Victory Day Every year on May 9

"Today I signed the relevant decree, and every year from tomorrow, May 9, we will honor our historical unity — the unity of all Europeans who destroyed Nazism and will defeat rascism (russian fascism)," the Ukrainian leader said.

@jonn Actually, one of the linked discussion is about dependent Haskell.

The implementation of one of the GHC proposals related to DH is currently blocked on the base split and GHC internal modules.

So if have suggestions on how to proceed and move forward efficiently, feel free to share your thoughts!
