i watched youtube.com/watch?v=nZ8LEauITs last night and it was so shamelessly sweet and uncynical that it almost made me angry. which, to be clear, i mean as a compliment. highly recommended

i remember once watching a talk by the main developer on the Idris purrogramming language about Idris 2 and being fascinated by his commentary on some new architectural changes being made to the language. IIRC Idris 1 targeted the LLVM IR and as a shortcut fur experimentation he was compiling Idris 2 to Chez Scheme. but then he was just like “well i was doing that fur research purrpusses but the resulting code has ended up being so fast that it’s just what we’re actually going to use in the release version of the language”. wild shit

i can’t imagine the Bun codebase is a pleasant one to maintain these days

of course people who would like a language that defaults to immutable data structures would make docker images composable from immutable parts

learning that Docker uses OCaml made me instantly understand why docker images work the way they do
