2026-06-01 22:40:55 +0000 <tomsmeding> (and yes, I do think a microhs demo would be pretty spiffy, although I would first want to know how large the wasm blob would be)
2026-06-01 22:39:44 +0000 <tomsmeding> though the old clunky thing is still there
2026-06-01 22:39:19 +0000 <tomsmeding> the playground is actually linked rather prominently from haskell.org nowadays (I had no hand in this, it happened at some point :p)

2026-06-01 22:23:19 +0000 <tomsmeding> if it runs in a sandbox (MicroHS runtime) inside a sandbox (javascript in the browser), it's probably fine :)

2026-06-01 21:56:00 +0000 <mesaoptimizer> https://www.haskell.org/ should use an MHS version for its homepage demo

2026-06-01 21:20:29 +0000 <monochrom> Conversely! I have a friend who found BASIC's and C's "X = X+1" non-sense because it would be non-sense in math. In this case my friend's first language was math so he tried to shoehorned BASIC into math!
2026-06-01 21:20:05 +0000 <yin> you make it sound like some ethically ambiguous experiment :D
2026-06-01 21:18:57 +0000 <monochrom> yin: (Belated) It has always been human nature to shoehorn everything into what one already knows. In the instance you saw, people demand for-loops iff their first programming lessons emphasized for-loops. Decades ago some MIT people tried and succeeded in teaching FP to children, no complaint about not learning for-loops.
