2020-11-14 12:32:40 <merijn> And of course GHC has the best (only real?) software transactional memory implementation
2020-11-14 12:32:40 × ensyde quits (~ensyde@99-185-235-117.lightspeed.chrlnc.sbcglobal.net) (Ping timeout: 258 seconds)
2020-11-14 12:32:41 <Feuermagier> interesing. but I gess i'm not at that stage yet. maybe in a few weeks
2020-11-14 12:32:56 <Feuermagier> merijn, what is that?
2020-11-14 12:33:26 × jakalx quits (~jakalx@base.jakalx.net) (Ping timeout: 258 seconds)
2020-11-14 12:34:06 <merijn> Feuermagier: Basically you get shared mutable variables with the ability to make atomic updates to them (like, not atomic on the invididual variable, but "this entire set of operations on multiple variables happens atomically")
2020-11-14 12:34:13 <Ariakenom> i agree. haskell's concurrency is great
2020-11-14 12:35:04 heatsink joins (~heatsink@107-136-5-69.lightspeed.sntcca.sbcglobal.net)
2020-11-14 12:35:52 <merijn> Feuermagier: You should browse through the modules under Control.Concurrent in base: https://hackage.haskell.org/package/base-4.14.0.0 and the STM package: https://hackage.haskell.org/package/stm
2020-11-14 12:36:08 <Feuermagier> thx!
2020-11-14 12:36:09 <merijn> Feuermagier: The STM package should also have a link to the paper that explains it in detail
2020-11-14 12:36:48 <merijn> Oh, and maybe stuff like
2020-11-14 12:36:51 <merijn> @hackage async
2020-11-14 12:36:51 <lambdabot> https://hackage.haskell.org/package/async
2020-11-14 12:36:53 <Feuermagier> the more you guys explain the workings of this language, the more i like it :)

2020-11-14 12:38:21 <Ariakenom> "Parallel and Concurrent Programming in Haskell" is great. im not sure if you can just jump into the chapter on stm but I will link it

2020-11-14 12:39:43 <Ariakenom> looks like its mostly readable on its own
2020-11-14 12:40:01 <littleEngine> hey.. are there any ideas in the community about functional machine learning
2020-11-14 12:41:06 coot joins (~coot@37.30.49.253.nat.umts.dynamic.t-mobile.pl)
2020-11-14 12:41:26 <littleEngine> i dont mean deep learning in haskell but more like genetically searching for some pure function
2020-11-14 12:41:43 <merijn> bah...keeping my parser and pretty printer in sync feels like a solved problem, but I can't seem to figure out how to encode it

2020-11-14 12:43:07 <Ariakenom> there's some on inferring a value (ex function) from its type. in contrast to inferring a type from a value like we do currently
2020-11-14 12:44:39 <littleEngine> hmm.. seems impossible without some extra information on the function
2020-11-14 12:44:55 <Ariakenom> forall a. a -> a
2020-11-14 12:45:25 <littleEngine> id
2020-11-14 12:45:33 <merijn> littleEngine: That sorta stuff is generally done on the AST level
2020-11-14 12:47:01 <merijn> hmm...there's no real way to talk about constructors in a first class way, is there?
2020-11-14 12:47:03 <Ariakenom> didnt we have a bot that does this?
2020-11-14 12:47:17 <merijn> @free a -> a

2020-11-14 12:54:06 <Feuermagier> how do i set a double to infinite?
2020-11-14 12:54:27 <merijn> Same way as every language with IEEE-754
2020-11-14 12:54:32 <merijn> > 1/0 :: Double
2020-11-14 12:54:34 <lambdabot> Infinity
2020-11-14 12:54:58 <Feuermagier> well, yes, but usually there's a static variable like "MAX_INTEGER"
2020-11-14 12:55:02 <merijn> > -1/0 :: Double
2020-11-14 12:55:04 <lambdabot> -Infinity

2020-11-14 12:55:39 <merijn> There isn't one, currently. I usually just do "infty :: Double; infty = 1/0" in my code

2020-11-14 12:55:53 <carter> merijn: did you message me on ci ?
2020-11-14 12:55:59 <merijn> carter: Yeah
2020-11-14 12:56:07 <carter> Which channel?

2020-11-14 12:56:41 <carter> Derp
2020-11-14 12:56:46 <merijn> but it was basically "no, this doesn't exist yet" :p
2020-11-14 12:56:48 <Ariakenom> note that the conversions like realToFrac are broken on inf
2020-11-14 12:57:08 <merijn> Ariakenom: Well, what could they possibly sensibly be?
2020-11-14 12:57:32 <Ariakenom> fair. more broken than necessary. they should error
2020-11-14 12:57:41 <carter> There’s some changes to fractional I need to flesh out
2020-11-14 12:57:58 <merijn> ugh...why does dispatching on constructors gotta be impossible >.>
