@aburka @Viss @forrestbrazeal @amyengineer There are a few attempts on that. The thing generates its own code to run a next iteration.

@glynmoody If only they could stop mixing with civilians and using public infrastructure to stage attacks. Their leaders are their worst enemies in this, with all the "victory is near" bravados while shooting their own children for "stealing" food.

@someodd Yay, more Haskell games! dpwiz@gh

@gd that's almost a tautology. It is correct under the given set of axioms.
Then, ex falso quod libet somewhere in there and you have a prod full of bugs.

@aras Reminds me of this trick https://petapixel.com/2021/07/26/unwrapping-buzz-aldrins-visor-in-moon-photo-reveals-what-he-saw/

@aras impressive feat of un-rendering!

@amiloradovsky and by whom

@p that's "beginners tips"
Real pro tip: test your backups (can be combined with wiping the OS!)

@thor "Escape? From my safe space?"

@chris__martin Nah. It's just lousy UX with cryptic, error-prone rituals. Mercurial and Bazaar had it so much better.

@anselmschueler At least it isn't |> or something like that. Ew.

@meowski @ahmetasabanci Stuff like this happened since the early days.

Especially illuminating that a bot "trained" on Slack logs learns to tell "tomorrow", "ok" and so on, but is very reluctant to actually put an effort.

@gerrymcgovern Degrowth, maybe, but not before settling interplanetary space.
Too early and you're subscribing billions of humans and all the species to a "death from entirely natural causes".

@edgarogh Yeah, operators are pretty unsearchable.

However there's an index for many kinds of #Haskell stuff you may be interested in.

Search operators: https://hoogle.haskell.org/?hoogle=%28%26%29&scope=set%3Astackage

Search by name: https://hoogle.haskell.org/?hoogle=Semigroupoid

Search by type (!): https://hoogle.haskell.org/?hoogle=Maybe%20a%20-%3E%20%5Ba%5D

(Bonus) Find packages: https://hackage.haskell.org/packages/search?terms=containers

@akshay Un-dvent of Haskell, day 1

That would be [registerDelay](https://hackage.haskell.org/package/base-4.19.0.0/docs/GHC-Conc.html#v:registerDelay). It's in IO, but it gives you a TVar, that will flip to True when the time comes. You can readTVar it to decide retry or bail.

Also, you can wrap pretty much anything in `timeout` (in IO proper).
