2026-02-04 18:31:48 +0100gentaurowe would probably down in funding xD

2026-02-04 18:31:35 +0100gentaurowhat if we rename the awesome tools to: hAIskell and ocAIml xD
2026-02-04 18:30:55 +0100 <gentauro> not good time for FP tbh :-\
2026-02-04 18:30:45 +0100 <gentauro> and when Mathieu Boespflug sold Tweag, both Haskell and OCaml was "somehow" abandoned :'(
2026-02-04 18:29:40 +0100 <gentauro> edwardk: :'(

2026-02-04 18:25:02 +0100 <edwardk> re fb/meta not sure if _all_ haskell inside meta is gone, but a lot of it is
2026-02-04 18:24:41 +0100 <edwardk> gentauro, geekosaur: correct on both accounts

2026-02-04 18:20:12 +0100 <gentauro> I guess also since Marlow left FB/Meta, they dropped Haskell right?
2026-02-04 18:19:55 +0100 <gentauro> geekosaur: I guess the wording should have been "sponsored" by MS.
2026-02-04 18:16:58 +0100 <geekosaur> dunno about that but more recently he was working for Well-Typed which I think took on ghc after MSR dropped it?

2026-02-04 18:00:08 +0100 <edwardk> I think that was an inevitable consequence of hiring johnw and bgamari.
2026-02-04 17:58:40 +0100 <edwardk> That said, we are starting to use Haskell again at Positron!

2026-02-04 17:53:22 +0100gentaurolucky enough to have experienced edwardk coding-live at Poznan at a river while everybody else were partying <3
2026-02-04 17:52:03 +0100 <gentauro> greetings edwardk
2026-02-04 17:40:53 +0100 <merijn> Not for "bazillions of short-lived tiny things"
2026-02-04 17:40:46 +0100 <merijn> Refcounting is great when you have few mostly long lived big things
2026-02-04 17:40:27 +0100 <merijn> tomsmeding: Additionally that just doesn't jive well with the garbage profile of most haskell programs

2026-02-04 17:12:10 +0100 <tomsmeding> (python is known for its refcounting system but it has a tracing GC too that runs occasionally, because of cycles)
2026-02-04 17:11:42 +0100 <tomsmeding> magic_rb: you can't suffice with refcounting for haskell, you get cycles all over the place that you have to collect with some kind of tracing GC
