🔴 LIVE https://stream.place/rickcursive.bsky.social Learn You a Haskell Challenge - Day 4 / 300

Day 3 / 300 of the Haskell challenge was all about setting up my development environment. Read about my journey, my thoughts, and learnings in the blog article. I now have a working Neovim installation wired to the Haskell Language Server (HLS). Ready for Day 4! whtwnd.com/rickcursive....

When working on a side project, it’s really a downer when you pick it up after 1+ years and the first thing you have to do is spend days on library updates and migrations. Well, not with Elm. Elm is feature complete, and you can pick up the code where you left it 5 years ago. Isn’t it neat?

Day 2 of the Haskell Challenge. Today I mostly focused on understanding what 'referential transparency' means, in both the computer science and linguistic context. It was confusing at first but I am sure it will eventually click within the next 298 days. whtwnd.com/rickcursive....

My thoughts and learnings after my first day (but not first attempt) of learning Haskell. I had fun streaming this live, thanks so much to everyone who joined me today! Let's do this for real. I can't wait to look back on this day after reaching day 300! whtwnd.com/rickcursive....

Introspecting a decade of my professional life. Life isn't always easy on you and finds odd ways to mock and then reward you. Keep your heads up, stay strong even in difficult times. Take care! whtwnd.com/rickcursive....

Is there a way to transfer my @whtwnd.com articles to @standard.site ?

On my bucket list: Having a 25k streak on Duolingo 🦉

It seems like the whole world is building things for agents. Where was all this creativity when it was about building things for humans? 🤔

AI psychosis is real? Fascinating how convincing those people can be, about AI taking our jobs. Sometimes I wonder whether I have a psychosis, or if they have visions. Nor are healthy.

I couldn't find any real use case for Hermes Agent. While everything sounds promising—"Agent that grows with you" or "never forgets"—I was surprised by how little he actually remembers. Now he's sitting in some Discord server, being mocked by my friends and me for how little he remembers.

I am really excited when I finally find an excuse or a reason to use git bisect again.

Dusk is ink and dawn the page, Take the quill out of the cage. Your story—not yet unfold, Embrace today and you’ll find gold.

Sparks won’t ignite overnight, Ideas brew in silent flight. Patience whispers, hold the flame, Let time weave its perfect frame.

If FirefoxOS had been released in 2025 instead of 2014, it would likely have been a huge success. Web based applications have conquered the world.

With no purpose, hearts don’t dream, Hug your dears and don’t be mean. Find joy in your daily tasks, Live with love, no need for masks.

Time slips fast, years blur and fly, Growing old feels like a lie. Body fades, yet heart holds fast, Young mind dreams—how long will last?

New day dawns, seize its might, Chores loom large, yet you ignite, First move breaks the heavy trance, Win small fights, let relief dance.

A few days ago, I wished for a way to better manage and control my scattered social media accounts. Then, yesterday, I found @whtwnd.com, and it’s a dream come true! Thank you for this simple, clean, and powerful app - you truly made my day! whtwnd.com/rickcursive....

Silence soothes mind’s loud voice, Sit tight, calm, and find rejoice. Once mind wakes, it stirs with noise, Deep breath in to hush the voice.

Truth Or Dare - My Story About Social Media | Rick | WhiteWind blog whtwnd.com/rickcursive....

See my soul, not shadows cast, Trust my roots, they hold me fast. Judge my fire, not faded scars, Love my heart, it shifts the stars.

When you want to share a fact, The source makes a strong impact. To skip it breaks the pact, Always aim to be exact.

Events all over the world, Maybe real, maybe whirled. Truth is, I am the product, My choice shapes how I’ll conduct.

Hi, I'm Rick. I enjoy daydreaming and reflecting. I'm not aiming to be funny, just sharing thoughts. Feel free to read and share yours. Take care!
