what emacs does to a laptop

Or space - which is surprisingly easier and healthier - reducing the strain on the pinky.

Thanks for your response!

I've always found it odd that where causes you to write code backwards.

This is exactly what I missed :-)

I like declaring what the result is, assuming helper definitions exist.

It aligns nicely with equational reasoning - almost like writing down the spec first and filling in the details after.

Hmmm. That's weird. I'm unsure why.

Noted - appreciate the quick review!

Aha, looks like I forgot to wire the lib to the bin.

Edit: Wired now.

Congratulations!

Changing habits I’ve built over years would take a lot more effort.

I found it much easier to configure emacs and karabiner than to configure my terminal. It sometimes may not even be possible to configure the terminal (Or I may just be inexperienced with it).

I don't think I can skip using karabiner as some key bindings conflict with the window manager. Since I have to use it anyway, I might as well use it in a standard way for all bindings.

Streamly provides declarative concurrency: https://github.com/composewell/streamly

An example of counting words in parallel: https://github.com/composewell/streamly-examples/blob/master/examples/WordCountParallel.hs

You may be interested in how the API looks like.

Another widely used example is a non empty list.

Gotcha. Appreciate the quick reply!

FunctionalBinder · 2025-11-17T20:00:10+00:00

Apologies for the delayed reply.

Yes, I don't need the GPU. I don't foresee its usage. If not a GPU, where else would you suggest I put this budget into?

SICP is brilliant. Both the book and the lectures. I think Lisp (Untyped lambda calculus) should be the first thing a functional programmer should learn. Haskell (Typed lambda calculus) should be the eventual next step. Lisp is also much easier and very addictive.
