    This is great, I haven't been introduced in the notion of supercompiliation. Reading the papers you've listed and going through GRIN's paper [1] it ticks the boxes in terms of lazi…

    Fair point, I don't disagree with the statement that `Self` can be limiting as the trait is defined for `Functor[A]`. Thus imposing limitations on type system. You would want for t…

    Technically yes, although there's no support for FFI yet. Purity would allow it as long as side-effects are wrapped into IO type.

    Comment #49157081

    As I was deciding on the compiler backend, I stumbled upon on it in r/ProgrammingLanguages on reddit. I liked the syntax itself and the fact I can compile the language in the IR of…

    `Self` isn't the applied type (`List[A]`), rather it's the type constructor of kind `* -> *` constrained by `Functor`. In the map example it gets desugared into: fun map[Self: Func…

    Yeah the LSP support is next, my goal is to implement the language server in the fuse itself. At the moment there’s a simple formatter implementation fusefmt: https://github.com/fu…

    Haskell is a great language with a really advanced type-system, although I found its syntax hard to read at times especially as I was exploring the language at first. On the other …

    First of all thanks for all the feedback and looking into it, appreciate it! Yeah GRIN is a great project, it took a lot of debugging and analysis to make it compile 100% especiall…

    Show HN: Fuse – statically typed functional programming language

    Hi HN! I've been working on the fuse programming language, it's a statically typed purely functional language with higher-kinder types and ad-hoc polymorphism. It compiles to the G…

    I just recently found out about these two types of system. It's strange how people (like shown in the article) don't emphasize(know) it when talking about types in languages. Inter…

    Events can handle much more connections than a thread based approach. For example nginx is implemented with event-driven architecture: https://www.nginx.com/blog/inside-nginx-how-w…

    I also think it's fine to change the code someone wrote. Just because someone wrote it, doesn't mean it's the right way to do it. I often find myself rewriting the code, it's the n…

    Reminds of a movie from Andrei Tarkovsky, Stalker. The guy may be the Stalker, leading people to the center of the Zone - the elephant foot in this case.
