2024-11-14 23:48:37 +0100 <carbolymer> thanks geekosaur. I've found some resources on tf vs fd:

2024-11-14 23:45:53 +0100 <geekosaur> (aside from the big one, that ghc isn't going to get actual type lambdas that way possibly ever)
2024-11-14 23:45:32 +0100 <jackdk> I had hoped that there was a decent idiom for writing a type family that could compute z from `class Foo x y z | x y -> z` but nobody could tell me one

2024-11-14 23:45:19 +0100 <geekosaur> does this mean there are still some issues with tyfams?
2024-11-14 23:45:01 +0100 <geekosaur> huh
2024-11-14 23:44:44 +0100 <geekosaur> I mean, we've already ditched backward compatibility in so many other ways, anyone who wants to stay with mtl+fundeps can keep using mtl2
2024-11-14 23:44:30 +0100 <jackdk> Just yesterday I wanted to turn a relation expressed in fundeps into a type-family-shaped thing and the best suggestion I got was "don't, pick over the type using generics instead"

2024-11-14 23:43:48 +0100 <geekosaur> …but that was over a decade ago. maybe it's time for mtl3: the type families edition
2024-11-14 23:43:10 +0100 <geekosaur> (and maybe a performance issue)
2024-11-14 23:42:52 +0100 <geekosaur> (IIRC there were a few problems with type families back then that meant the mtl folks went with monads-fd, including a bug in older ghcs)

2024-11-14 23:41:52 +0100 <geekosaur> I do sometimes wonder what the Haskell ecosystem would look like now if monads-tf had won out over monads-fd as the successor to mtl1

2024-11-14 23:40:56 +0100 <shapr> yeah, just curious what you thought
2024-11-14 23:40:45 +0100 <geekosaur> I'm not sure they're more principled, since I'm not really a type theory or type level wonk
2024-11-14 23:40:32 +0100shaprthinks about that
2024-11-14 23:40:22 +0100 <geekosaur> I think in some sense they fit Haskell better, because fundeps are a chunk of Prolog imported into the type system
2024-11-14 23:39:47 +0100 <shapr> geekosaur: do you think type families are more principled?
2024-11-14 23:38:08 +0100 <geekosaur> many people consider the latter mroe principled, but functional dependencies have been around longer and most standard libraries still use them
2024-11-14 23:37:39 +0100 <geekosaur> they are, and yes, they're essentially identical. one uses a functional dependency to establish a relationship between types, the other a type family that is associated with the typeclass ("associated type family")

2024-11-14 23:12:41 +0100 <carbolymer> what's the difference between Foo1 and Foo2 here: https://paste.tomsmeding.com/HEZo1ic4 ? aren't they expressing the same thing basically?
