Likes writing long blocks of code on the beach. Typescript, F#, Elm, SQL, Haskell, Python, C#, it's all cool really. https://t.co/DDfN7mgQOa He/They

I have new followers now.😬 Hi, I'm a mid level software dev in the Caribbean. I'm obsessed with Functional Programming, Readability, and inclusive and positive spaces. If you're interested in chatting about Domain Driven Design, fp in the front-end, and t3h memes, hit me up.

Day 6 of #adventofcode in #fsharp This time I'm really happy with my solution! In fact so happy that I might go back and have another go at Day 5, trying to apply all the tools I've picked up from other coders. The original solution of course stays up. github.com/WiltonHotz/Adv…
Wilton Hotz@HotzWilton

Right so this is very embarrassing code but on the flip side, I'm 10 times more excited to look at everyone else's solutions... Another win is is that I got to apply one of the 20 things I wrote down (array pattern matching) github.com/WiltonHotz/Adv… #adventofcode in #fsharp

@AmyShackles I have never finished. And honestly, if I do it'll probably be in like, late February. And that's OKAY

@KirkCodes I have solved all 4 days so far and I think it’s the longest run I’ve had with Advent of Code. Will this year be the year I finally finish it? Who knows!

Every year I contemplate doing #adventofcode in something besides F#, and then I go with F# and it's great :) Still in my top tier for practicality, robustness, and expressiveness across domains. And it's fun :D

@VicVijayakumar My go to lang for just about everything. Full power of the .net ecosystem. Functional friendly. Expressive but approachable. And it's hard to use anything else for data analysis/data fetching because of compile time API guarantees with Type Providers. learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/f…

JavaScript is underrated for shell scripting. I’ve been reaching for TS/JS more & more over bash scripts. Bash doesn’t support JSON or data structures other than arrays, & I was tired of invoking JS from Bash. Currently writing vanilla JS, but the zx project looks very cool!

FIFA should host an award show called the Fallies. With categories like "Best Dramatic Actor in a Home Game" "Best Agonised Shin Clutch in a Regional Finals" "Most Artistic Stumble in a Second Half" Proceeds go to charity, everyone haves a laugh, no harm, all fouls.

Ok - I'm giving myself until January 1st, 2023 to get my RPG task app public and ready to take subscriptions. It's close, but needs polish, and will need tutorials, docs, and a way to take money... But, I need a goal. Now I have it.

Today I'm working from home, I love my job, I'm enjoying what I'm doing, and I'm so freaking proud of what I've achieved so far!! The moral of this short story is you can always start over and change your life, you should always fight to improve your life.

Today is the kick-off of the world cup, and that brings back a memory. Four years ago, I could only watch some qualification games because I had to go on board and stay on the ship for three months without internet + in shitty work conditions. 🧵 #webdevelopment #career #WorldCup

Never Scala'd before, but enjoyed this thread. 99% feels applicable for F# and Typescript (fp-forward programming in general) All techniques have a place, but be wary of complex patterns. Functions and ADTs are evergreen, LOOP when appropriate to do so. No dogma, only tools.
Mat Fournier@mat4nier

Since this place is going away I'm going to write Mat's Highly Opinionated Scala Tips after working in Scala at three different companies: 1. Make more types. ADTs are great. Use them. More. More. You can probably make even more. Newtype them if you think you have perf problem

Elm spoiled me with supportive error experiences, and now I think about it whenever I encounter a new environment. Lots of systems are great when things are right. But how clear are they when things are wrong? How well does your platform navigate users from failure to success?
Matías@matiasfha

@mattpocockuk I want the TS errors to be like Elm or Rust. Elm compiler is your friend and mentor. TS compiler (errors) are a bully

@kyleshevlin I'm gonna try my hardest to do some of the setup work before December so I can try a new Lang and actually focus on learning the patterns and solving problems VS getting bogged in environment and setup. But I also need to just pick something. I am bad at this.

@VicVijayakumar @danieltott I hear he does it with a pretty cool guy called @KirkCodes. But like, idk about all these guys teaching all these cool TS things live and stuff. They’re not even verified or anything.

I've been learning TypeScript, and it's been a really great--and also confusing--experience. I totally get it, and I buy the reasons to use TS. But I'm not to the point where things feel natural rn. That's a 2023 goal.
