| 2026-01-22 13:27:22 +0100 | <oskarw> | __monty__: Can I learn some MU beforehand? Or this langauge exist only inside company? |
| 2026-01-22 13:26:08 +0100 | <gentauro> | oskarw: xD |
| 2026-01-22 13:25:59 +0100 | <__monty__> | Isn't Mu eager rather than lazy? That's a pretty big difference from Haskell, no? |
| 2026-01-22 13:25:43 +0100 | <oskarw> | Now I feel like impostor xd |
| 2026-01-22 13:25:34 +0100 | <oskarw> | I will check his site |
| 2026-01-22 13:25:08 +0100 | <oskarw> | Aaa xd |
| 2026-01-22 13:24:56 +0100 | <gentauro> | xD |
| 2026-01-22 13:24:55 +0100 | <gentauro> | oskarw: I though you were -> https://wickstrom.tech/ |
| 2026-01-22 13:24:51 +0100 | <oskarw> | I would be salty if I was named Oskar instead of Ansgar being born as Swede |
| 2026-01-22 13:24:32 +0100 | <[exa]> | oskarw: btw the good point for interviews is that if you already know some haskell you're basically guaranteed fast learner :D |
| 2026-01-22 13:23:52 +0100 | <gentauro> | oh, my bad |
| 2026-01-22 13:23:20 +0100 | <oskarw> | No, I'm from Poland |
| 2026-01-22 13:23:08 +0100 | trickard_ | trickard |
| 2026-01-22 13:23:04 +0100 | <oskarw> | [exa]: Probably true |
| 2026-01-22 13:23:03 +0100 | <gentauro> | oskarw: but you are swede right? ;) |
| 2026-01-22 13:22:49 +0100 | <oskarw> | *unfortunately |
| 2026-01-22 13:22:21 +0100 | <oskarw> | gentauro: Unfortuneteller no, oskarw is just my name with first letter of surname |
| 2026-01-22 13:22:20 +0100 | qqq | (~qqq@185.54.21.105) |
| 2026-01-22 13:21:32 +0100 | <[exa]> | oskarw: most of the competition has issues catching up with the fact that they'd even use haskell |
| 2026-01-22 13:21:10 +0100 | <oskarw> | I think lawyers think this would be just copy-paste |
| 2026-01-22 13:21:05 +0100 | <gentauro> | oskarw: inferring from your name, are you the one that made "Idris in PureScript"? :) |
| 2026-01-22 13:20:35 +0100 | <oskarw> | I'm always curios how fast would competition "catch up" to using custom variant of haskell |
| 2026-01-22 13:20:00 +0100 | <oskarw> | gentauro: This is fair, but it is still sad |
| 2026-01-22 13:19:33 +0100 | <gentauro> | (not ideal though) |
| 2026-01-22 13:19:22 +0100 | <gentauro> | oskarw: they pay "our bills" so "they decide". I think it's fair ;) |
| 2026-01-22 13:19:02 +0100 | <oskarw> | So sad, but what we can do about it |
| 2026-01-22 13:18:29 +0100 | <gentauro> | welcome to corpo world xD |
| 2026-01-22 13:18:25 +0100 | <oskarw> | And for one moment I though about security by obscurity or something |
| 2026-01-22 13:18:23 +0100 | <gentauro> | I was working on a FP-project. We gave the talk showcasing it. All the attendees "voted" (by raising their hand) to "open source it". Next day, legal said: No |
| 2026-01-22 13:17:43 +0100 | <gentauro> | oskarw: profits ;) |
| 2026-01-22 13:17:33 +0100 | <oskarw> | merijn: Do you know what is stoping lawyers to open source MU? |
| 2026-01-22 13:17:06 +0100 | <gentauro> | I guess they make a ton of money. Everytime I see Liverpool FC play, I kind of giggle -> https://www.liverpoolfc.com/corporate/partners |
| 2026-01-22 13:16:44 +0100 | <oskarw> | merijn: Nevertheless there are surely some algorithm or general bussines knowladge I can learn beforehand |
| 2026-01-22 13:16:42 +0100 | <gentauro> | merijn: :'( |
| 2026-01-22 13:15:58 +0100 | <merijn> | Lennart wrote it and has (so far) not managed to get the lawyers to ok publishing the compiler, and I'm salty about that |
| 2026-01-22 13:15:44 +0100 | Googulator43 | (~Googulato@2a01-036d-0106-030a-8d41-f550-2a4f-1a91.pool6.digikabel.hu) |
| 2026-01-22 13:15:41 +0100 | <gentauro> | right? |
| 2026-01-22 13:15:34 +0100 | <gentauro> | however, they do use Haskell |
| 2026-01-22 13:15:33 +0100 | <merijn> | Yes, Mu |
| 2026-01-22 13:15:31 +0100 | <oskarw> | [exa]: I will also bruch up my knowladge about concurrent programming. I've done project in haskell about concurrent programming, but I forgot some of the stuff |

| 2026-01-22 13:15:29 +0100 | <gentauro> | merijn: they have their own compiler right? |
| 2026-01-22 13:14:50 +0100 | <merijn> | I mean, Standard Chartered doesn't even use GHC (or at least not exclusively), so that makes preparing ahead of time even trickier :p |
| 2026-01-22 13:14:19 +0100 | <oskarw> | merijn: Yes, its Standard Chartered |
| 2026-01-22 13:13:58 +0100 | <merijn> | Is that Standard Chartered? Or another one? |
| 2026-01-22 13:13:55 +0100 | <oskarw> | What do you mean by raw networking? |
| 2026-01-22 13:13:17 +0100 | <[exa]> | and maybe some actual number crunchery (repa/accelerate?)) |
| 2026-01-22 13:12:50 +0100 | <[exa]> | otoh there's almost surely gonna be networking, if you've never done raw networking you could try a bit in advance |
| 2026-01-22 13:12:14 +0100 | <[exa]> | like, I'd assume that company like that will have their own non-public stack for stuff so likely hard to learn in advance |
| 2026-01-22 13:11:39 +0100 | <oskarw> | Generally algorithms for financial market |
