| 2024-10-15 00:08:39 +0200 | <geekosaur> | oh, is that why ($) is infixr? 😛 |
| 2024-10-15 00:08:11 +0200 | <tomsmeding> | Glorious [Glasgow [Haskell Compiler]] is how I'd read it |
| 2024-10-15 00:07:54 +0200 | <monochrom> | [[Glorious Glasgow] Haskell] Compiler |
| 2024-10-15 00:07:48 +0200 | <tomsmeding> | the prose seems to use "specialise", the inline code snippets in the prose "SPECIALIZE", but then the larger code blocks have "SPECIALISE" |

| 2024-10-15 00:07:19 +0200 | <yin> | is it [Glorious Glasgow] Haskell Compiler or is it Glorious [Glasgow Haskell Compiler]? |
| 2024-10-15 00:07:18 +0200 | <tomsmeding> | the ghc user's guide is mightily inconsistent about specialize/specialise |
| 2024-10-15 00:06:41 +0200 | <tomsmeding> | *Glorious Glasgow |
| 2024-10-15 00:06:34 +0200 | <yin> | *Glorious |
| 2024-10-15 00:06:07 +0200 | <monochrom> | Oh haha both spellings are supported. |
| 2024-10-15 00:06:06 +0200 | <tomsmeding> | but SPECIALIZE is the other way around: "(UK spelling also accepted.)" |
| 2024-10-15 00:05:50 +0200 | <geekosaur> | it is the *Glasgow* Haskell Compiler, after all |
| 2024-10-15 00:05:10 +0200 | <tomsmeding> | omg TIL GeneralisedNewtypeDeriving is written in British spelling as the standard in GHC |
| 2024-10-15 00:04:59 +0200 | <monochrom> | haha |
| 2024-10-15 00:04:04 +0200 | <yin> | monochrom: you just add {-# LANGUAGE GennerTippiesM8^^ #-} |
| 2024-10-15 00:03:04 +0200 | <monochrom> | I... didn't know that there is also Australian spelling. |
| 2024-10-15 00:01:37 +0200 | <geekosaur> | (we go through this with DCSS as well, every so often someone patches up some name to Australian spelling) |

| 2024-10-15 00:00:32 +0200 | <monochrom> | oh heh |
| 2024-10-15 00:00:14 +0200 | <geekosaur> | funny enough, it was originally GeneralizedNewtypeDeriving, I found a ticket once about adding the "correct" spelling |

| 2024-10-14 23:58:27 +0200 | <monochrom> | Something about the package name being hscolour and the exe name being HsColour. |
| 2024-10-14 23:57:35 +0200 | <yin> | so besides Color and colour we can still have color and Colour |
| 2024-10-14 23:57:19 +0200 | <yin> | oh no, package names are case sensitive? |
| 2024-10-14 23:52:32 +0200 | <monochrom> | he |
| 2024-10-14 23:52:22 +0200 | <tomsmeding> | (ghc --show-options | grep -i z) >:D |
| 2024-10-14 23:52:03 +0200 | <tomsmeding> | and the "specialize" spelling also appears in a bunch of command-line arguments to GHC |
| 2024-10-14 23:50:49 +0200 | <tomsmeding> | -XGeneralizedNewtypeDeriving |

| 2024-10-14 23:50:35 +0200 | <monochrom> | haha |
| 2024-10-14 23:50:22 +0200 | <tomsmeding> | {-# SPECIALIZE #-} |
| 2024-10-14 23:49:56 +0200 | <monochrom> | Fortunately they avoided another war by deciding that you just have to write -XGADTs |
| 2024-10-14 23:49:36 +0200 | <yin> | (of course there is also a Color package) |
| 2024-10-14 23:49:22 +0200 | <yin> | how would that help? |
| 2024-10-14 23:48:40 +0200 | <monochrom> | Ever heard of Generalised ADT? >:) |

| 2024-10-14 23:45:31 +0200 | <yin> | they should have done a type synonym |

| 2024-10-14 23:44:45 +0200 | <yin> | the description is "A model for human colour/color perception" |
| 2024-10-14 23:44:13 +0200 | <tomsmeding> | juicy |
| 2024-10-14 23:43:45 +0200 | <yin> | (the dependency was https://hackage.haskell.org/package/colour itself :p) |
| 2024-10-14 23:43:23 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <sm> ha speak for yourself |
| 2024-10-14 23:43:21 +0200 | <tomsmeding> | so the Colour one is the awkward one there :p |
| 2024-10-14 23:43:11 +0200 | <tomsmeding> | regardless of how much I prefer British spelling, for better or for worse I do think we've settled on American spelling in identifiers |
| 2024-10-14 23:42:27 +0200 | <monochrom> | At least you can just import without qualified :) |
