    Finally published this: a set of flexible and forgiving parser combinators for numeric literals, compatible with the syntax of Ruby, Python, JS, Java, and a whole lot more.

    More excited for GHC 9.2 than I’ve been for a GHC release in some time. RecordDotSyntax, NoFieldSelectors, UnliftedDatatypes, the ghc-debug and ghc-exactprint packages, and the GHC2021 language extension set—really great stuff that I plan to start using immediately.

    I’ll admit I was skeptical about moving to a fully-virtualized development environment, but I was totally wrong—for a dependency-heavy Rails app the experience is lightyears better than local development. I expect to see a lot more of this in the future.

    If a candidate has 5 years of experience, there’s no reason for college education to come up in the hiring process at all. It’s simply not relevant. Some companies will even still ask to see your transcripts, which is absurd.

    A week ago, I had a conversation with a company regarding a role. After a productive conversation with a recruiter, I sent times to set up an interview. The Hiring Manager determined that my lack of a CS degree and having 4 jobs in a 5+ span disqualified me from the role. 🤔

    Just hooked a Rust program I’m writing up to dtrace thanks to ’s awesome ‘usdt’ crate: a provider-defining .d file and a codegen-invocation in my later, I can call a macro to invoke a probe. Magic, or close to it.

    Any support for Israel/IDF is solely hinged on repeating "it's complicated" followed by non sequitur garbage that remains unconscious to geo-political ground realities. It's not complicated. The UN has called on Israel to stop human rights violations. 🇵🇸

    Everyone razzes me for using the word ‘otiose’ in commit messages, but my secret shame is that I only use it because I can never spell ‘unnecessary’ right the first time

    This is a pretty big deal, not just for the use cases it opens up, such as deep editor integration, but also because this is (to my knowledge) the only reasonably-complete parser for GHC Haskell outside of the one that ships with GHC itself!

    A cool thing: thanks to the work of Torsten Schmits, the tree-sitter Haskell parser has improved leaps and bounds, all the way up to being able to parse code with -XCPP and -XBlockArguments!
