| 2025-05-07 01:33:43 +0200 | <hellwolf> | question to emacs user again: why haskell-mode does not indent function parameters in new lines? |

| 2025-05-07 01:27:15 +0200 | <geekosaur> | too many old SF shorts writers |
| 2025-05-07 01:27:04 +0200 | <geekosaur> | ah, whoops |
| 2025-05-07 01:26:53 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <Liamzee> no, Cordwainer Smith / Paul Linebarger (real name, wrote under pseudonyms due to the nature of his work) |
| 2025-05-07 01:26:35 +0200 | <geekosaur> | Vonnegut's first story iirc |
| 2025-05-07 01:26:23 +0200 | geekosaur | was afk but knew the reference |

| 2025-05-07 01:25:15 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | ... murdered and his project covered up. Of course, it's a pulp science fiction story, so their plot is foiled, but to some extent it seems relevant to modern software development, no? |
| 2025-05-07 01:25:10 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <Liamzee> oh, and to fill out the useless reference, "Scanners Live in Vain" refers to a short story by a US army intelligence guy (who was also a disclosed CIA officer after his death) about a fraternity of space pilots who went grueling and dehumanizing hardship to safely chaperone people across worlds. One day, someone invents a technological workaround that renders their job irrelevant, so they connive to have the guy... |

| 2025-05-07 01:07:47 +0200 | <EvanR> | some other thing would have been easier since I wouldn't have to maintain it |

| 2025-05-07 01:07:15 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <Liamzee> nope, and that just makes me annoying |
| 2025-05-07 01:07:11 +0200 | <EvanR> | I keep all my accounts for self employment in sqlite and then came to same conclusion, why? |
| 2025-05-07 01:06:59 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <Liamzee> If I say "Scanners Live in Vain", would anyone get the reference? |
| 2025-05-07 01:06:45 +0200 | <EvanR> | the grass is always greener |
| 2025-05-07 01:06:44 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <Liamzee> advantages of such an approach: simplicity. disadvantages of such an approach: how performant is going straight through the database? how safe is using sqlite instead? |
| 2025-05-07 01:06:22 +0200 | <monochrom> | Read: My role as a Haskell programmer to maintain that Haskell code is also obsoleted. |
| 2025-05-07 01:05:34 +0200 | <monochrom> | I have a lot of student marks to process. Various marking platforms give me student marks as CSV. In the past I wrote my own Haskell program with cassava to read, compute, write. But I can see a future where I just use sqlite, in fact even just the sqlite command line. My Haskell program will be obsoleted. |
| 2025-05-07 01:04:56 +0200 | <int-e> | You could simply not answer inane "what do you think of" questions that are asked without motivation or other direction or context that would confine the scope of the answer. |

| 2025-05-07 01:03:48 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <Liamzee> too obviously socratic |
| 2025-05-07 01:03:05 +0200 | <monochrom> | Why to Haskell types? Why not get rid of even that Haskell program, for example? |
