I just released the first version of hworld, the #haskell bindings I wrote for the World library.

Given a recording of a voice, it allows you to compute a "vocoded" representation that is easy to manipulate to perform actions such as:
- pitch shifting
- simulation of whispering
- machine learning

and resynthesize high-quality audio based on that manipulated encoding.

There aren't much examples for now, but still feel free to take a look!

Je viens d'essayer @12train après avoir vu tout le monde en parler très positivement ici. J'ai trouvé ça très bien, après j'ai l'impression que ça n'apporte rien de plus et presque rien de moins* que Trainline.

Mais il faut dire aussi que je vois beaucoup de gens ici se plaindre de trainline en disant que c'est devenu nul, alors que moi j'ai zéro problème ? Bon par contre j'ai installé une appli.

Moralité : si vous avez pas envie d'installer une appli, @12train c'est très bien

*Ya juste un mini truc qui me manque : si je fais une recherche des trains pour un certain itinéraire sur une certaine plage horaire, mais que je voudrais élargir la recherche après avoir vu les résultats, je serais content d'avoir un bouton "voir les trains plus tôt" au début de la liste et un bouton "voir les trains plus tard" à la fin, qui élargissent la liste avec les trains plus tôt/plus tard. Plutôt que d'avoir à manuellement changer l'horaire dans le formulaire de recherche

I'm watching Andor, and I have to say I really like the Star Wars universe's worldbuilding, aesthetically. I like that it has never taken itself seriously¹, and still everything is full of thought-out detail, environments have soul, the photography is beautiful...

Of course that's to be expected of such a big budget franchise (though I don't get the impression that, say, typical Marvel blockbusters have such a focus on aesthetics... but maybe it's just because I haven't seen all that many Marvel movies²)

¹ For instance: Most of the cast is human, but there's always one or two aliens thrown in just for the sake of it. Robots always have some human-like quirk... Also I just watched a scene where blue milk was poured on cereal — because of course people in a galaxy far, far away eat cereal just like us, but milk has to be a funny color.

² I have seen the two first spiderverse movies though, and I am in love with them... I just suspect they're an exception.

I'm trying my hand at writing #haskell bindings to a C library! It's definitely a little rough but I'm making good progress 😅

Question:

The C library has functions that produce an array but expect you to manage memory by yourself — so basically, you allocate an array, give the pointer (as well as some other arguments) to the C library function, and the function writes into the array and returns nothing.

In Haskell, this translates to a function `SomeArguments -> Ptr CDouble -> IO ()`. I would like to use that function to define a higher-level binding to that function, in the form of a function of type `SomeArguments -> Vector Double`. What's the best way to do that? This seems like a common enough idiom in C that I assume someone has had to deal with the same thing before, maybe there are some examples out there?

In #typst , in math mode, parentheses seem to be used both to control logical grouping and, well, to display actual parentheses. It seems that the typst compiler will make a "smart" choice as to whether to show the parentheses you put in (as opposed to only using them to determine how your math content is grouped).

Now I have some content that needs grouping, so I use parentheses but I don't want them to show up. The compiler displays them. What can I do to tell it not to?

I just discovered Hugh Laurie (Dr. House's actor) and Stephen Fry used to be a comedy duo, and I watched this very funny skit by them:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nq-dchJPXGA

Now what's interesting is the *first* time Laurie drops the object, it did kind of sound like an English name to me, so I tried to parse what I was hearing as a surname, and I more or less settled on a name, which (as far as I could tell) I had made up, that is, I had never heard it anywhere else before.

But then I went through the youtube comments, and sure enough, someone said they heard the exact same name as I did! Crazy how we manage to interpret random sounds in the exact same way.

(I'm writing the name I heard as an answer to this toot, in case you want to try your hand at guessing a name too :) )

Any math people (or anyone, really) want to review a math-related blog post I wrote?

I'll send you the text, you won't be *committing* to giving me feedback (would just be nice if you do), I just expect you to keep the text for yourself as long as I haven't published it.

It definitely won't be too technical if you're into math, maybe a little if you're not (but I'll be happy to hear your thoughts about it in either case!)

I'm still not clear whether my private #fediverse account (which is meant to basically replace my #instagram account) should be on #mastodon or #pixelfed, and whether it being on one or the other makes much difference.

Both will allow me to interact with any other account on the fediverse*, right? And to post text and/or images? So is it just a matter of which UI I'll be interacting with**? Or is there a deeper difference between mastodon/pixelfed/pleroma/etc.?

Any resource suggestions for an acquaintance of mine who would like to get into #math ? They pretty much stopped doing math in high school, they have a philosophy background, today they're a software developer discovering #Haskell and it makes them want to get into math more. They're very smart.

I was thinking about Bertrand Russell's *Introduction to Mathematical Philosophy*. Also just discovered (while looking up Russell's book) the existence of *An Introduction to the Philosophy of Mathematics* by Mark Colyvan, any opinions on that one?

I have suggested they watch pop sci videos such as 3blue1brown's videos, but I feel like they need more of a general foundation rather than expositions on specific topics.

I suspect the answer to this is something along the lines of:

`mut` is not allowed in a type signature (so the second option above is a syntax error), *however* `&mut` should be regarded essentially as different keyword, which is why I *have* seen `mut` in type declarations in cases like this:

```
fn some_function(some_argument: &mut SomeType) {
```
