Update on a little hobby project:
My Z-machine emulator in Haskell (grue-hs) can now play most version 3 Infocom games, like Zork and Wishbringer.

Another graphical demo of my functional array language. This time, the demo program generates a PPM image using ray tracing. 25 deterministic samples per pixel, and up to 8 reflective bounces. 0.25 seconds when running on my Mac Studio GPU via MSL.

The Pillars of Eternity games are so good. It makes me want to go play the old Infinity Engine games like Baldur's Gate and Icewind Dale, but I don't have nearly enough free time for that.
I feel like everything I do now gets filtered through the lens of "can we turn this into a grant" or "will this help us get more funding". And there are people now who rely on me to do this or they lose their funding. It's not great 😬
I wasn't prepared for how much of being a lecturer/assistant prof in academia revolved around trying to acquire grant funding.
My functional array programming language, Hydrangea, now successfully uses polyhedral analysis to automatically tile stencil computations like 2d Laplacian (example in the README).

Here's an example of the little prover working. It's implemented as a shallow embedded DSL in Python. This is the code to prove length(append(xs, ys)) == length(xs) + length(ys).
This is a functional, rank-polymorphic, data parallel array programming language with lightweight refinement type checking and aggressive fusion and loop nest optimization.
I've started pushing the compiler implementation to a public repo.…
Does anyone have any leads on jobs in FP, formal methods, or compilers, that are either remote or based in northern California?
I'm thinking of setting up a little blogging script using elisp and org-mode, and I don't know if I need to bother with generating an RSS feed. Do people still use RSS feeds?
