adelarsq··on The Fennel Programming Language
I have 3500 lines config file in Lua that I have converted from VimScript last year. I see that Lua it's way easier to maintain than VimScript.

Fennel solves some Lua kirks, so I think that is a good use case, since Fennel has some cool features that can help to maintain the code. Right now I am moving the plugins that I maintain to Fennel.

If interested take a look on the https://github.com/Olical/nfnl and https://github.com/gpanders/fennel-repl.nvim plugins.

adelarsq··on Rust: The wrong people are resigning
Would be really good a change no the communication side. But I am without expectations side there where days without any explanation about why a draft for trademark pourposes was so bad.

Now working with Rust I have the same feelings as working with Java...

adelarsq··on Why I Use Elm in 2023
That's what we are using right now in production. But the main benefit on this case is that we also can use the same language on the server and devops.

These are one of the things that shiver me in production legacy code.
adelarsq··on Ask HN: I just want to have fun programming again
My two cents would be on F#.

Yes, isn't a mainstream language but there are a lot of interesting things with it:

- build for .NET or languages supported by Fable (JavaScript, Dart*, Python*, Rust*, PHP*) - I did build a proof of concept Flutter app with it

- multiparadigm - FP or OO, you choose

- clean syntax - based on indent just like Python

- Type providers, type inference, ...

* These are on Fable 4.0.0-theta-018 at moment

adelarsq··on Quantum winter is coming
> director of research at Bank of America said that quantum computing will be “bigger than fire”. The only way in I can see this coming true is that it’ll produce more carbon emissions.

I laugh so hard on this. But it's true.

adelarsq··on OCaml at First Glance
1. For F# you can can use both .NET and JavaScript libraries (with tool called Fable), so isn't a issue.

2. There a lot of ways to the that, which one with pros and cons, but isn't a issue in my opinion

3. For imports there are a thing called AutoOpen that is strange at first. Just need to be carefull where to use

4. .NET documentation tend to be writed for C#. So you need to understand at least a little of C# if you want to use that libraries. But also there are a lot that can be use idiomaticaly with F#, so isn't a big issue.

adelarsq··on Ask HN: Is it just me or Facebook is being bombarded by spam?
I am away from Facebook for some years. But yes, there are a lot of spam on it, even years ago. This was the main reason that I stop using, since a lot of content was irrelevant

adelarsq··on Mass and angular momentum, left ambiguous by Einstein, get defined
But if the matter on the big bang was limited wouldn't a limit on the universe size based on how much matter exists?
adelarsq··on Mass and angular momentum, left ambiguous by Einstein, get defined
At same time that a center does not exists it exists. Take a line between the two sides from the theoretical border, divide in the middle and will be a center. But isn't a center.

adelarsq··on Fable is a compiler that brings F# into the JavaScript ecosystem
Also there are work to support PHP (https://github.com/fable-compiler/Fable/pull/2447), Rust (https://github.com/fable-compiler/Fable/pull/2523) and Lua (https://github.com/fable-compiler/Fable/pull/2509)
