2026-06-11 19:06:27 +0000 <[exa]> oh lol the actual version I got in 1995
2026-06-11 19:05:54 +0000 <yin> this one? https://dos.zone/exploding-atoms-sep-07-1992/
2026-06-11 19:05:54 +0000 <jgee242> yin: if you like CA (https://www.cs.ox.ac.uk/admissions/undergraduate/courses/demo_turmites.html)
2026-06-11 19:05:07 +0000 <[exa]> also never saw it on hexes
2026-06-11 19:04:57 +0000 <[exa]> yin: btw there's the "exploding atoms" game, quite old, that could be cool too
2026-06-11 19:03:45 +0000 <yin> each cell only knowing about adjacent cells and all
2026-06-11 19:03:27 +0000 <yin> i realized today that minesweeper would be a perfect demo for it
2026-06-11 19:03:17 +0000 <EvanR> cellular automaton
2026-06-11 19:03:02 +0000 <EvanR> CA?
2026-06-11 19:02:46 +0000 <[exa]> I see there's more hexy video arounds yeah
2026-06-11 19:02:23 +0000 <yin> i'm testing my CA-based game engine
2026-06-11 19:01:59 +0000 <[exa]> o great
2026-06-11 19:01:34 +0000 <yin> [exa]: yes it is
2026-06-11 19:00:58 +0000 <yin> mauke: lol nice
2026-06-11 19:00:35 +0000merijn(~merijn@host-cl.cgnat-g.v4.dfn.nl) merijn
2026-06-11 19:00:25 +0000 <jaror> But legend sounds nice too
2026-06-11 19:00:12 +0000 <jaror> According to the paper "A History of Haskell: Being Lazy With Class"
2026-06-11 19:00:11 +0000 <[exa]> oh wait that's toroidal hex minesweeper?
2026-06-11 18:59:56 +0000 <[exa]> interesting
2026-06-11 18:59:18 +0000 <EvanR> HBC
2026-06-11 18:59:17 +0000 <mauke> [exa]: works fine in my firefox
2026-06-11 18:59:11 +0000 <EvanR> so it was first... according to legend
2026-06-11 18:59:05 +0000 <[exa]> ah no, correction: firefox fails on it
2026-06-11 18:58:34 +0000 <[exa]> yin: ah it's probably just slow
2026-06-11 18:58:24 +0000Vajb(~Vajb@n5fv3njy8ismu511u8e-1.v6.elisa-mobile.fi)
2026-06-11 18:57:50 +0000 <[exa]> tried to enable everything
2026-06-11 18:57:47 +0000 <jaror> based on the LML compiler.
2026-06-11 18:57:47 +0000 <jaror> of waiting even longer we would write our own Haskell compiler
2026-06-11 18:57:47 +0000 <jaror> in Nice in late June of 1990 Staffan Truv“e and I decided that instead
2026-06-11 18:57:47 +0000 <jaror> Glasgow people at the LISP & Functional Programming conference
2026-06-11 18:57:47 +0000 <jaror> on the LML compiler. And I waited and waited. After talking to
2026-06-11 18:57:47 +0000 <jaror> compiler, it was supposed to come from Glasgow and be based
2026-06-11 18:57:47 +0000 <jaror> During the spring of 1990 I was eagerly awaiting the first Haskell
2026-06-11 18:57:43 +0000 <yin> [exa]: is it possible that you have js disabled or some other extension interfering?
2026-06-11 18:57:33 +0000 <mauke> yin: https://github.com/mauke/mini-mine/blob/main/app/Main.hs ?
2026-06-11 18:57:02 +0000 <jaror> Yeah, he co-authored hbc
2026-06-11 18:56:35 +0000 <[exa]> yin: for whichever reason asciinema doesn't load for me, am I doing something wrong?
2026-06-11 18:56:02 +0000 <jaror> Let me look it up
2026-06-11 18:55:54 +0000 <jaror> I thought so at least
2026-06-11 18:55:48 +0000 <EvanR> the first haskell compiler?
2026-06-11 18:55:47 +0000 <int-e> ah right. https://hackage.haskell.org/package/supero (note that it's old and more of a prototype, but I think it still counts)
2026-06-11 18:54:41 +0000 <yin> because i just did! https://asciinema.org/a/1230692
2026-06-11 18:54:37 +0000 <jaror> Lennart Augustsson wrote technically the first Haskell compiler and I think some more and then recently also MicroHs
