@markeibes @BrianGoetz Exactly, there is no need for more than one function — composition ftw 😁

[Steven Shaw @steshaw]

Thanks to @BrianGoetz, Java is adopting type classes! It's becoming the best mainstream functional language!

✅ algebraic data types with exhaustive pattern matching
✅ Nullable types: JSpecify now, language feature later
✅ Haskell's type classes 🤯

@hmemcpy What is this secret wisdom?

[Steven Shaw @steshaw]

@headinthebox I prefer correct-by-construction to the insertion and checking of invariants, but I imagine that it kind of ends up being the same. As a programmer, the former seems a better fit for my thinking, I suppose 🤷‍♂️

@Steve8708 @ravinator Leptos?

[Steven Shaw @steshaw]

@markeibes @BrianGoetz You are making no sense, but go on 😁

[Steven Shaw @steshaw]

@markeibes @BrianGoetz sure, np — you just need an external termination checker

@dhh @ryanrhughes What happened to Omakub. This is one of those things with Linux, there are a lot of choices. Will next year be Debian or NixOS? I like Ubuntu + @RegolithL!

@Krever01 Aren't akka actors evil impure things?

[Steven Shaw @steshaw]

How is Leptos so amazing https://t.co/RLM35yejXN. I don't know, but I'm going to find out!

No more bicycles, buses, or stairs for me. If you use reCAPTCHA, I don't use you. I'm done! 😜

@dhh 16.93s on my aging MacBook Air M2. Will check later on Win11 work laptop with Dev Drive (ReFS), NTFS and WSL. Much later at home on my Linux desktop with ZFS. Is BTRFS optimised for small files?

@BenjDicken I want my application to be co-located with the database via an in-process database library.
