4 Oct 2011 Yesod excellent ideas »
tl;dr:
I follows the yesod web framework for some times now. And I believe it reached the point where you should really consider to use it. But instead of telling you why you should learn Haskell and use yesod, I prefer to talk about new ideas used by yesod I didn’t saw in other frameworks.
Type safety
Let’s start by an obligatory link from xkcd:

28 Sep 2011 Higher order function in zsh »
tl;dr: some simple implementation of higher order function for zsh.
Why is it important to have these functions? Simply because, the more I programmed with zsh the more I tended to work using functional programming style.
The minimal to have better code are the functions map, filter and fold.

Diff is a very useful tool. But it is not so easy to read for us, simple mortal.
This is why, when you use git it will use a better formatting and colorize it.
Here is the script I use when I want to use human readable diff à la git.
#!/usr/bin/env zsh # Load colors helpers autoload -U colors && colors function colorize_diff { while read line;

Two words about the content
Here you'll can find mostly technical articles. Some are just reminder of technical tips. But some are long and technically detailled articles.
I do my best to traduce each page in french and in english. It not always easy. English is not my natural language. I make many errors, orthographic, grammatical, typographical…
Thanks not to judge me based on these errors! And don't forget content is more important than presentation!
The first impression I'll let you if we meet in real life should be different from the one I let you based on my website.
I wish you to find something useful or interesting on this website.
