Just now, I took a cold shower. It was exciting as Hell. The shock, alone, was amazing.
What an adrenalin rush!
I'm changing my name (unofficially) to Perma.
Also I am changing my usernames here and there to reflect that change.
Is that ok with you guys.
I have another post BTW:
“Dishonesty of Optimizing for Developer Time”
Picture this: a clash of ideals, a tug-of-war between two schools of thought, each passionately championing their cause. On one side, we have those who chant the mantra of developer time and productivity, swearing by the motto, “Code fast, iterate faster!” On the other side stand the valiant defenders of performance, robustness, and correctness…

new blog post: "When Choosing Tools, Measure Twice, Cut Once"
The web is problematic, but intentional tool selection empowers a better experience. Look for transparency, avoid lock-ins, and prioritize what matters most. You can do it, and it'll make your life easier. Believe in yourself!

When it comes to presenting a failure as progress through clever mental maneuvers, which group do you think will come out on top?
Haskell. Its tool chain and version management pose significant hurdles, admittedly.
While the language itself inspires wonder, I must confess that the tooling falls short when measured against the high standards set by contemporary languages like Go and Rust.
In all fairness, we should recognize its historical context, where Haskell competed with C. From that perspective, its advancements were indeed commendable, and it's miles ahead of the rather "horrible" tooling in C.

Isn't rust supposed to have FP support?
Isn't FP supposed to help your programs be simpler, regardless of how purely functional your language is?

When it comes to minimal languages, I feel that Zig has much greater potential than Go. But tooling-wise, Go has the edge for now.
Honestly, the consistency and elegance of Zig is blowing my mind.

As I in my yesterday's blog post:
“Each passing day brought forth an ever-increasing deluge of hyper-SEO-optimized, meaningless content and tech-centric sites merely driven by profit, overtaking the slots that were once reserved [in the first page of search engines] for passionate individuals with independent blogs.”
