2020-10-14 23:18:18 <christo> i'm obviously completely new to it
2020-10-14 23:18:42 <christo> i'm learning it because of "haskell school of music" for my dissertation project

2020-10-14 23:25:53 <yushyin> hello christo :)
2020-10-14 23:25:55 <christo> what do ya'll guys use haskell for?
2020-10-14 23:25:57 <christo> hey !
2020-10-14 23:26:26 <peutri> most everything
2020-10-14 23:26:31 <Axman6> christo: not that you asked, but I've been using Haskell professionally for about 6 years (with a few shorter jobs using it before that) I've used it in finance, on a high frequency trading system, made web services with it for geospacial data, and plenty of data processing along with that, I've used it for large scale data processing on the cloud with a lambda-and-queues architecture, and now work on a system in a Haskell derived language to
2020-10-14 23:26:32 <Axman6> replace a critical part of one of the largest stock exchanges infrastructure
2020-10-14 23:26:45 <Axman6> (ok, in the time I took me to write that you did ask)
2020-10-14 23:27:53 <christo> cool

2020-10-14 23:28:11 <christo> why would it be good for computer music? and why use it atall over other languages
2020-10-14 23:28:34 <christo> i've seen a lot of people use it for computer music
2020-10-14 23:28:47 × dcoutts_ quits (~duncan@33.14.75.194.dyn.plus.net) (Ping timeout: 265 seconds)
2020-10-14 23:29:11 <christo> Axman6 on enterprise/commercial scale haskell projects, what build tools/tools do u use?
2020-10-14 23:29:13 <Axman6> I don't think there's anything in particulaar that makes it good for computer music specifically. but overall, the incredibly powerful type system lets you get your thoughts in order, in a way that can be reliably checked
2020-10-14 23:30:05 <frdg> christo: Here is a nice video about making music with haskell: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FYTZkE5BZ-0
2020-10-14 23:30:21 <Axman6> in the past I used stack mostly, but it is(or was) somewhat more optimised for app development, as opposed to library development, which worked well in a commercial setting
2020-10-14 23:30:51 minne joins (~minne@4e69b241.skybroadband.com)
2020-10-14 23:30:55 jespada joins (~jespada@90.254.245.15)
2020-10-14 23:31:02 <christo> Axman6 why should i learn haskell? does it allow me to do things say Java couldn't?
2020-10-14 23:32:01 <christo> or is it purely because people like the way it forces you to write code
2020-10-14 23:32:12 <Axman6> no, most languages are turing complete and therefore equivalent, by sme definition. but the pleasure of doing it will be quite different, and some languages let you express a lot more with a lot less text
2020-10-14 23:32:31 × son0p quits (~son0p@181.136.122.143) (Quit: leaving)
2020-10-14 23:32:53 <Axman6> there are many many things which are much nicer in Haskell than other languages though.
2020-10-14 23:33:13 <Axman6> writing reusable code is a pleasure, since the type system allows us to be very generic about our types
2020-10-14 23:33:16 <christo> so haskell is about the elegance of the code that is being written itself
2020-10-14 23:33:31 <Axman6> I wouldn't say that's what it's about
2020-10-14 23:34:10 <christo> i'll have to look into it more :)
2020-10-14 23:34:31 <christo> can i do multi-threading n' stuff in haskell?
2020-10-14 23:34:51 <Axman6> Haskell is probably one of the best languages for doing concurrent programming in
2020-10-14 23:35:24 proofofme joins (~proofofme@184-96-74-65.hlrn.qwest.net)
2020-10-14 23:36:32 <Axman6> for two reasons - the purity of functions and lack of mutability mean that a lot of the problems with concurrency are eliminated unless you are explicit about them. GHC's multithreading system is one of the most lightweight implementations of any languages, you can happily run hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of threads - network servers are usually implemented by just making a new thread per connection

2020-10-14 23:39:42 GyroW joins (~GyroW@unaffiliated/gyrow)
2020-10-14 23:39:56 <christo> in haskell do you have the notion of instances (objects) like in java?
2020-10-14 23:40:13 × proofofme quits (~proofofme@184-96-74-65.hlrn.qwest.net) (Ping timeout: 260 seconds)
2020-10-14 23:40:22 <Axman6> we just have data, which is immutable. we do not have objects
2020-10-14 23:40:27 <christo> thx frdg

2020-10-14 23:41:21 merijn joins (~merijn@83-160-49-249.ip.xs4all.nl)
2020-10-14 23:41:44 <koz_> Is there something like 'foldMapA :: (Applicative m, Monoid n, Traversable t) => (a -> m n) -> t a -> m n
2020-10-14 23:41:45 Axman6 (is in a meeting and will be back later)
2020-10-14 23:41:46 <koz_> '
2020-10-14 23:41:47 <christo> cause' i was thinking how would one use haskell to write a game with 20 instances of Frog for example. but i'm sure there's a way
2020-10-14 23:42:06 <koz_> christo: An instance is just a data value.
2020-10-14 23:42:14 <koz_> So you'd just have 20 things of type Frog.
2020-10-14 23:42:19 <christo> cheers for info Axman6 appreciate it
2020-10-14 23:42:40 <christo> i see
2020-10-14 23:43:35 <koz_> I mean, I guess it's just 'foldMapA f = unAp . foldMap (Ap . f)'.

2020-10-14 23:47:01 <koz_> MarcelineVQ: Yeah, which is easiest to get here when we use Ap, rite?

2020-10-14 23:47:42 <MarcelineVQ> seems like it, and foldMap as you did since you wanted to apply some f as well which I overlooked somewhow

2020-10-14 23:48:46 <frdg> would `otherwise` be considered a global variable?

2020-10-14 23:51:06 <MarcelineVQ> *I wouldn't say that.
2020-10-14 23:51:31 <frdg> right, its not much of a variable.
