  • The machine itself can generally only do very simple things

    I disagree. Assembly languages for modern architectures are a complexity hell. You need books with thousands of pages to explain how they work. In comparison the lambda calculus is much simpler.

  • AP probably stands for ActivityPub

  • The symbolic rewriting is interesting.

    I do wonder what "modern-style" functional programming means.

    Also their FAQ says:

    But considering other FPLs like Haskell and ML, Pure's library support isn't bad

    Clicking that link reveals a list of about 34 libraries. In comparison, Haskell's current curated Stackage snapshot has 3340 packages in it (the total number of packages is probably more than 10x that). So, I think it is odd to claim its ecosystem is anywhere near Haskell's.

  • /kbin meta @kbin.social

    Code blocks from Lemmy get mangled here on Kbin

  • The reason I want to follow that account is actually because I'm not seeing their posts, even though they use #haskell and I'm subscribed to that hashtag (and my magazine https://kbin.social/m/haskell is "subscribed" to that hashtag). Is there any way to get their posts to show up in the microblog?

    How to follow people from other instances?
