2024-11-14 21:02:40 +0100 <lxsameer> c_wraith: ahh I see. I use nix with cabal, the good thing is I use nix packages and it's pretty fast
2024-11-14 21:02:23 +0100 <geekosaur> (consider that a solver in thsi case is a constraint satisfaction solver, so yes, it's pretty slow)

2024-11-14 21:01:58 +0100 <geekosaur> stack is much faster because instead of using a solver it gets fixed versions from the snapshot and `extra-deps`

2024-11-14 21:01:31 +0100 <geekosaur> cabal rebuilds on first run and when the script changes. sadly its solver is really slow; people are working on that, though

2024-11-14 21:01:00 +0100 <c_wraith> (Not helped by attempting to use NixOS at one of the few times it actually was installing broken stuff. Not fair, but I still associate that experience with nix)
2024-11-14 21:00:57 +0100 <lxsameer> c_wraith: how come?

2024-11-14 21:00:02 +0100 <c_wraith> I like the theory, but every time I've tried to use it it's been immensely more complexity than benefit

2024-11-14 20:55:58 +0100 <hellwolf> that'd be even more "script-ish"
2024-11-14 20:55:50 +0100 <hellwolf> Cabal scripts is convenient, you just need to be aware of the junks it leave behind: ~/.cabal/script-builds/. I wish it has a convenient way of running the script in interpreting mode though, without creating any artifacts.

2024-11-14 20:52:48 +0100 <c_wraith> I may need to look into using the partial-hackage-mirror script in the cache as well.

2024-11-14 20:50:47 +0100 <c_wraith> I recently made my CI cache the cabal index as well as built packages. Turns out it can load from the cache *marginally* faster than from hackage.

2024-11-14 20:47:03 +0100 <shapr> So far, only problem is that using cabal as the interpreter directive takes about two minutes on first run, ouch
2024-11-14 20:46:32 +0100 <lxsameer> I just found out about bluefin, and omg it's much much clearer that effectful for me, kudos!!!
2024-11-14 20:40:17 +0100 <geekosaur> hackage is immutable append-only storage
2024-11-14 20:39:58 +0100 <geekosaur> even those are on hackage, just flagged as deprecated
2024-11-14 20:31:55 +0100 <c_wraith> ... give or take some that had security issues so bad it was determined no one should ever use that version
2024-11-14 20:25:15 +0100 <sm> sure.. all old versions are stored on hackage

2024-11-14 20:17:04 +0100 <hellwolf> basic question regarding cabal... if you specify a version that is not the "HEAD" of the package, would cabal be able to retrieve it from somewhere still?
