https://goto.anardil.net/ - Launchpad for all my other (16!) sites.

The main ones are:

https://diving.anardil.net/ - Scuba diving picture gallery; organized by timeline, common name, taxonomy, and more

https://dnd.anardil.net/ - Artifacts from my groups' D&D games

https://pirates.anardil.net/ - Pirate insult generator

https://alchemy.anardil.net/ - Morrowind (TES 3) alchemy calculator

I'll admit it's mostly this way because I thought ExistentialQuantification sounded cool and wanted to give a try with classes - this could definitely be tidied up

The rules were different in 2014 when I made my account! It's actually quite annoying because lots of 3rd party GitHub integrations puke immediately saying I have an invalid username.

Thank you for the suggestion, I'll give this a whirl! I've fussed around with `--ghc-options '-optl-static -fPIC'` and the like in years past without success.

You're right! Data.ByteString.Lazy is Word8 under the covers, so wide characters are truncated. tr takes a similar short cut. Swapping to Data.Text would fix that.

Where simplicity conflicted with compatibility, I've chosen the former so far. Targeting the BSD options and behavior is another example of that. The primary goal is to feel out the data flow for each utility, rather than dig into all the edges.

Definitely. Depending on how long you've spent staring at the contents of /bin/ and /usr/bin/ you'll notice there are definitely some array or matrix oriented utils (or options) missing like column.

cut comes to mind as a difficult one. In C, you can just hop around the char buffer[] and drop nulls in place for fields, etc before printing. You could go that way a Data.Array Char, but that's hard to justify as functional.

I'll have to give this a try, thank you for the suggestion!

It definitely has some sharp edges. One advantage is skipping computations (and the IO they'd need) that don't end up getting used, which let's you do some clever looking things/ ignore some details. That's hard to take advantage of in practice, I think.

The other advantage is just deferring IO. For instance in split or tee, you could decide that you need 500 output files and open all the handles together in order to pass them to another function that will consume them. I'd squint at someone who wrote `void process_fds(int fds[500]);`, but here it doesn't matter.

Thank you! This is one of my favorites. User declared variables are next on the todo list, when I get back to it.

Performance (execution, memory) is generally in the same ballpark as the BSD versions, with some caveats specific to utils that do lots of in place data manipulation.

cut comes to mind as an example, slicing and dicing lines into fields quickly without a ton of copies isn't easy. Using Streaming.ByteString generally makes a huge difference, but it's extremely difficult to use unless you get can your mind to meld with the types it wants. Picking it up again months later takes some serious effort.

Wow, hello! This is my repository. I'm happy to answer any questions.

D&D, tech, and scuba diving!

It's an interesting/challenging exercise to work through implementing some basic functions in BF, ie thinking only in loops.

I implemented an optimizing interpreter in Bash[1] on a plane ride, and it's still one of my favorite pet projects.

Some interesting sub-sites

https://timelapse.anardil.net/ Raspberry Pi timelapse videos since 2019

https://sensors.anardil.net/ Raspberry Pi temperature sensor plotting

I can second this; I've been with them for 8 years without complaints and really appreciate the record detail masking for my .net domain

You can take this even further by rewriting bash functions at runtime if you like. `declare` gives you direct access to the function body

Strange that IE can handle it, no console errors or warnings. The head and body tags are empty on the page, so a blank render is expected

The site is completely static, served from a Nginx reverse proxy to Digital Ocean Spaces

Shellcheck https://github.com/koalaman/shellcheck has excellent functional unit tests

That'd be great! I saw some todos, but you'll have the best perspective on what's important. I'm https://github.com/Gandalf-

Very neat! I've been working on a network application in Haskell too; this is a great reference.

Is this project still active? Are there some features you'd like help developing?

Hyperscale Network Attached Storage!

Disclaimer: I work on Isilon

60 FPS + negligible CPU on Chrome OS with Haswell though, interesting.

A fully decked out Isilon cluster supports 68PB on a single file system.

Reversible functions are important for cryptographic ciphers (encrypt, decrypt), as opposed to hashes which are one way functions.

I'm the author, feel free to questions!

Vim, vimwiki and markdown accomplishes everything their homepage says Medley can do.

You decide the structure and the files, so you can throw it all in git to make it accessible anywhere.

It'll be interesting to see what new technologies develop to counteract these measures. Adversity fosters growth right?

A script like that would be completely feasible, but wouldn't that make it more popular? Isn't it's difficulty to set up what's keeping it under the radar?
