    I've contributed to https://github.com/0xferrous/agent-box which allows you to bind-mount git repositories into containers that agents operate in, preventing the agents from access…

    Out of curiosity, what do you think is wrong with monomorphization-based polymorphism? The other alternatives I'm aware of are 1. type-erasure via v-table based dynamic dispatch (w…

    https://github.com/carp-lang/Carp might be of interest. It's a statically typed lisp.

    How does this compare to https://academy.fpblock.com/blog/quickcheck-hedgehog-validit... ? As far as I understand, Validity also has free generators and shrinking for types by havi…

    How would they do that if they don't use git for version control? Does GitHub allow other forms of version control other than git?

    I implemented an iterative, stack-based DFS iterator in JS last year for a project that I didn't end up using it on. Maybe someone else can find some use of it: https://gist.github…

    Still somewhat janky. I use it on my work machine (since it at least seems a bit faster than using VirtualBox) and regularly run into issues where npm won't build my project due to…
