2024-11-18 21:12:46 +0100 <SrPx> like mindblowingly cool
2024-11-18 21:12:17 +0100 <SrPx> ty
2024-11-18 21:12:15 +0100 <SrPx> and that's extremely cool
2024-11-18 21:12:11 +0100 <SrPx> it works flawlessly guys. the interaction count decreases based on the terms I actually observe in Haskell. so basically Haskell-side laziness propagates to HVM in the sense if you discard an HVM term Haskell-side, you won't pay for it

2024-11-18 21:04:46 +0100 <davean> Yah this sounds more ST than IO
2024-11-18 21:03:05 +0100 <mauke> so I figure if it is morally "like ST", then it should be OK
2024-11-18 21:02:52 +0100 <mauke> runST exists
2024-11-18 21:02:41 +0100 <davean> C FFI doesn't mean you have to have IO

2024-11-18 21:02:25 +0100 <SrPx> so, as long as I guarantee reduce acts purely, it is ok to import it as a pure function, even thought it isn't
2024-11-18 21:02:06 +0100 <mauke> (of course, that won't work if it takes/returns pointers)
2024-11-18 21:01:56 +0100 <SrPx> mauke: makes sense
2024-11-18 21:01:29 +0100 <mauke> if so, you can just import it at a pure type
2024-11-18 21:01:18 +0100 <SrPx> davean: that might be a better idea actually...
2024-11-18 21:01:08 +0100 <SrPx> davean: you mean in the sense I could wrap unsafePerformIO into the reduce() function I get from C?
2024-11-18 21:00:53 +0100 <mauke> is reduce a C function?
2024-11-18 21:00:42 +0100caconym(~caconym@user/caconym) caconym
2024-11-18 21:00:41 +0100 <SrPx> and it works!
2024-11-18 21:00:40 +0100 <davean> SrPx: Then it might be pure and not involve IO at all?
2024-11-18 21:00:02 +0100caconym(~caconym@user/caconym) (Quit: bye)
2024-11-18 20:59:59 +0100 <SrPx> ah, based on this I'm good to use it. reduce() will always return the same result, even though it mutates memory internally. ty guys
2024-11-18 20:59:34 +0100 <SrPx> "In general, it is up to you to prove that your use of unsafeInterleaveIO is safe. If you call unsafeInterleaveIO x, then you have to prove that x can be called at any time and still produce the same output."
2024-11-18 20:59:30 +0100 <davean> SrPx: It will run the whole IO, but IO can pass and produce lazy values just fine
2024-11-18 20:59:29 +0100 <mauke> gives you stdin as a lazy string
2024-11-18 20:57:50 +0100 <SrPx> mauke: no, what is that?
2024-11-18 20:57:47 +0100 <SrPx> interestingly, seems like there is a SO thread about exactly that: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/13263692/when-is-unsafeinterleaveio-unsafe
2024-11-18 20:57:27 +0100 <mauke> are you familiar with getContents?
2024-11-18 20:57:05 +0100 <SrPx> mauke: I've just learned about it, seems like what I need. although documentation isn't clear on how it could break things
2024-11-18 20:56:48 +0100 <SrPx> no. it is true that you can pass IO around lazily. yet, within the context of the execution of IO monad, calls will not be evaluated lazily - Haskell will run the whole IO, even if some parts aren't visible (see my example)
2024-11-18 20:56:31 +0100 <mauke> unsafeInterleaveIO exists

2024-11-18 20:55:45 +0100 <davean> I mean that is what IO already does.
2024-11-18 20:55:33 +0100 <SrPx> what will happen exactly?
2024-11-18 20:55:30 +0100 <SrPx> so I can't interleave IO calls to happen only when Haskell's lazy evaluator reaches an expression? ):
2024-11-18 20:55:17 +0100 <davean> IO doesn't remove laziness
2024-11-18 20:55:13 +0100troydm(~troydm@user/troydm) troydm
2024-11-18 20:55:07 +0100 <davean> I mean you can pass laziness through IO
2024-11-18 20:54:44 +0100 <geekosaur> right, but at that point I think I say "just do it in IO, you will be sad otherwise"
2024-11-18 20:54:43 +0100 <SrPx> the problem is that, now, the 'normal' function (which calls whnf-reduce layer by layer) is extremely eager. if I normalize a term and drop it, it will still fully normalize the term because the whole thing has to be wrapped in IO
2024-11-18 20:54:19 +0100 <davean> geekosaur: right, but see what he said "I do need the ability to do IO inside "pure" functions (because I'm using C FFI for performance)"
