bipvanwinkle··on Show HN: jnv: interactive JSON filter using jq
Looks awesome, one of my frustrations with jq has always been that I can't see what data I'm going to be retrieving until I run it.
bipvanwinkle··on Google mandates workers back to Silicon Valley, other offices from April 4
Agreed. I don’t if it’s for everyone, but i love it. No commute, healthier food, access to a bed for a quick nap, and a nice office. 10/10 would do again.

I’d love to know more about this too.
bipvanwinkle··on I'm working on open source full time
I just convinced the company that i work for to do exactly this. We’re small so there isn’t a lot of extra cash lying around, but we just started with a low number and we’ll increase it as we go along.

bipvanwinkle··on Reflecting on Haskell in 2016
Out of curiosity what progress has been made in regards to improving the ergonomics of records in Haskell? Stephen references that an answer is in the works, but it looks like it has stalled out.
bipvanwinkle··on When Haskell is Faster than C (2013)
I think it's worth pointing out though that idiomatic C is probably going to be more consistently performant. It seems common to run in to situations in Haskell where one change can cause 10X speedup, but I don't see that nearly as often with C code. I don't have a lot of evidence on hand to support this, just what I've observed personally. This seen fair? Relevant?
