Haskell. Haskell was right

New post in the #Haskell for #Elm developer series: part 6 discussing Foldable is out! 🪭👊🚀 flaviocorpa.com/haskell-for-...

Hello, Haskell: Getting started in 2026. ~ Lukasz Tymoszczuk. lukastymo.com/posts/025-he... #Haskell #FunctionalProgramming

Wowowowow we’re gonna get @polborta.bsky.social commentating the Candidates! 🙌🏻 so excited for this 🤩

The Candidates I wanted 🥹🥹🥹

For somebody else is the YouTube 2025 recap not showing in your app?

🇺🇿 Javokhir Sindarov takes 1st, 🇨🇳 Wei Yi claims 2nd, and Andrey Esipenko takes 3rd at the FIDE World Cup 2025 — all three earning their seats at the 2026 FIDE Candidates. Only two seats remain. Who will join them? ♟️ #FIDEWorldCup #FIDECandidates

#YusupovChallenge update: book 6, chapter 13 (the double bishop sacrifice) completed! Interesting chapter, I did not know this pattern and also that Lasker was the first to discover it! #chesspunks

🤭

Chess Grandmasters in the other site complaining that @lichess.org is too good and too 🆓🫠🫠🫠

After reading “50 mistakes you should know” I started to categorise my errors in tournament games. One that came up often was “failure to find the silent defense” or also “prophylaxis”, but in one of my latest games I was able to play these amazing moves, chess improvement is subtle! #chesspunks

Lichess should be back online. According to Cloudflare, "a fix has been implemented" and they "believe the incident is now resolved". We will continue to monitor the situation: www.cloudflarestatus.com/incidents/8g... We apologize again for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience.

Wow @lichess.org is down?!?! This is how the website looks without CSS... 😧

Hola a todas, estoy intentando buscarles casa a estos gatitos que se ha quedado solitos porque su dueña ha fallecido. Son muy caseros y cariñosos y no entienden porque ahora están solos en una casa vacía.

#YusupovChallenge update: book 6, chapter 12 (dont be too hasty!) This endgame chapter was challenging and in this particular ⭐️⭐️⭐️ puzzle, the author expected me to find a move that even the great Petrosian could not find 🫠🫠🫠 To my relief, I played the same as he, even if its not the best #chesspunks

#YusupovChallenge update: book 6, chapter 11 (black against the Reti, white against the King’s Indian) completed with good score! 😎 This time I’m a little pissed: my idea in this puzzle, Nb5! is not even considered as a possibility in the authors solution and SF even prefers it! #chesspunks

#YusupovChallenge update: book 6, chapter 10 (the lawn phalanx) completed! Luckily the author also features some game he lost, even if they were against such legends as Karpov! White to move and win, not easy at all! #chesspunks

Another proof that hard work beats talent 🥹🥹🥹

“Preparing for two classical games against Praggnanandhaa 🇮🇳 took me just 10 minutes — all on my phone! I didn’t even use my laptop,” said Daniil Dubov after winning against Pragg in the Round 4 tiebreaks of the #FIDEWorldCup in #Goa

My wife made me a homemade spicy pumpkin latte because the city’s Starbucks run out of them too soon and I was sad about it, I don’t deserve her 🥹☕️🎃

Tomorrow I might win an Italian game that may get me closer to the 1700s, wish me luck 🤞🏻

#YusupovChallenge update: book 6, chapter 9 (better pawn structures) completed! 😎 Can someone explain why in this game of Yusupov vs Aagaard Bg5 wouldn’t be a valid answer? SF only considers it slight worse to Bf4 🤔⭐️⭐️ #chesspunks

I wrote a new blogpost about what I learnt building this games with a functional language, please let me know if you enjoyed it or learnt something new! 🗾🙌🏻 flaviocorpa.com/japan-prefec...

#YusupovChallenge update: book 6, chapter 8 (calculating short variations) completed with Excellent score! 😎 This and the previous chapters were very tactical and fun, I guess my calculation is improving? Let’s see if it shows up in this Saturdays league game 🤞🏻 black to play ⭐️⭐️⭐️ #chesspunks

I need to write a talk solely for the purpose of presenting this slide and then never being invited to an FP conference again.

#YusupovChallenge update: book 6, chapter 7 (exploiting weaknesses) completed! 😎 This chapter was very interesting and felt very practical, some of the moves required first identifying the weakness and then calculating a way to exploit it, which happens very frequently in real games!! ⭐️⭐️ #chesspunks

I want to write a blogpost about the fun refactoring and game dev tips with types I had to do with elm 🌳 for these games… hope I find the time to write it and that it’s interesting for someone else 🙏🏼

Estamos ideando una batalla de carbonaras entre varios amigos y creo que va a ser muy divertido jajaja 👨🏼‍🍳👩🏻‍🍳🧑🏽‍🍳🍝🍝🍝

#YusupovChallenge update: book 6, chapter 6 (a lead in development) completed! Another difficult chapter, most of the exercises were taken from Alekhines games! 🫠 (come on there’s no way I can calculate like him…) white to play in this ⭐️⭐️⭐️ puzzle I failed. Agadmator would have succeeded! #chesspunks

#YusupovChallenge update: book 6, chapter 5 (don’t allow counterplay!) completed. 😎 This was a very difficult endgame chapter, lots of calculation involved and I spent like 4 hours on it and also pulled up SF to check my solutions. Failed this ⭐️⭐️⭐️ puzzle, black to play and hold the draw #chesspunks

Someone gets it!

Last game: the provinces of Spain! 🥘Have fun: elm-spain.vercel.app

This is not a drill: GHC (the #Haskell compiler) now runs in your browser. See the announcement (and please report any bugs) here: discourse.haskell.org/t/ghc-now-ru...

this is just horrible. everything is wrong and getting wronger. may his memory be a blessing.

#YusupovChallenge update: book 6, chapter 4 (opening repertoire against 1.c4) completed with good score! 😎 These QGD positions are not my style but at least the ideas are not that difficult. I’m happy with the symmetrical English for now. I failed this ⭐️ puzzle which is not that easy! #chesspunks

TIL Ampersand "&" is just a sloppy handwriting of Latin word "et" which means "and".

Is mastodon and the fediverse as dead as bluesky lately?

My Japanese teacher wanted us to learn the prefectures from Japan so I did another game in Elm 🌳 to help me memorise them! Enjoy! 🗾 @japonesaldia.com elm-japan.netlify.app

#YusupovChallenge update: book 6, chapter 3 (attacking the king) completed! 😎 I almost nailed all the exercises in this chapter, except for the ⭐️⭐️⭐️ puzzles like this one where I would find the first move, but not the best defense by the opponent (thus missing the remaining points)! #chesspunks

Me representa 😎

#YusupovChallenge update: book 6, chapter 2 (exchanging) completed! 😎 I loved all the classical games between Tal and Botvinnic in this chapter, lots of great model games to learn from! Black to play in this ⭐️⭐️⭐️ puzzle I failed #chesspunks

It's time to finally get that free course! 🤞🏻 @chessable.com #PuzzleConnect #chespunks

Programming still feels like a super power, you have an idea or you feel like learning something new and BAM! You can code it yourself if you don’t want to pay or there is no existing solution already 😎

A friend contributed some changes and now it looks amazing! 🤩 the magic of open source! ✨

I did a stupid game over the weekend to memorize all flags, have fun! elm-countries-quiz.netlify.app made in elm 🌳 of course!!

I played 4 games yesterday in an under 1700 tournament: I ended up 3/4 and played the ones I won with accuracy >= 94%, why can’t I be happy about any of them because I just lost one to a kid? Is it because I expected to do 4/4? Is anyone else experiencing this? Why is chess so hard? #chesspunks
