Luxe, ocaml et volupté

Luxe, ocaml et volupté by Clément Delafargue on February 16, 2026 Tagged as: ocaml . After a couple years using rust as my primary language, I’ve got a new job where I’m using a variety of languages (including rust and typescript), but mostly go 1 . So I did the reasonable thing and decided to try using a new programming language. If you’re unlucky enough to be within hearing distance, you may…

My coffee workflow

My coffee workflow by Clement Delafargue on April 1, 2025 Tagged as: coffee , espresso , flair58 , v60 . It is my first April cools’ and I guess I could start by talking about coffee. If you’ve seen me in person, it won’t be a surprise, I guess. This post is dedicated to Brendan’s memory, he loved good tea, and good coffee. He’s the one who talked me into getting my aeropress, with which…

Oxydizing my curry, one year later

Oxydizing my curry, one year later by Clément Delafargue on October 14, 2024 Tagged as: haskell , rust . In a somewhat basic move, I quit a Haskell job for a Rust job a bit more than a year ago. So it’s time for a small retrospective! Yay! Note that I have not changed job because I wanted to stop using Haskell professionally, but because I had the opportunity to work on biscuit. The state of…

KeyBoardic Apocalypse; or, Downsizing of Primary Keyboard: An Annihilation of Key Switches and the Beginning of Merciless Configuration

KeyBoardic Apocalypse; or, Downsizing of Primary Keyboard: An Annihilation of Key Switches and the Beginning of Merciless Configuration by Clément Delafargue on March 4, 2024 Tagged as: keyboard , qmk . The blog post was a pun on King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard last record’s name, but they released yet another one while I was writing this post, and it seems they are already working on another…

Bye twitter, it's not me, it's you

Bye twitter, it's not me, it's you by Clément Delafargue on July 17, 2023 Tagged as: . Twitter has been an important part of my life, but I have decided to close my account. I remain active on mastodon: @clementd @framapiaf.org . I will close my account in a couple weeks, so that I can establish other communication means over DMs. I have joined twitter more than 15 years ago. It would be hard to…

Taking helix for a spin

Taking helix for a spin by Clément Delafargue on January 15, 2023 Tagged as: text , tui , editor . I started using vim full-time in 2009. Back then full-featured editors like emacs were tempting, but once hooked on modal editing, it was too late to switch. When neovim came out, it wasn’t packaged for exherbo (the distro I was using at this time), so I never got to really play with it, even though…

Be fun with SVG and befunsvge

Be fun with SVG and befunsvge by Clément Delafargue on November 7, 2022 Tagged as: haskell , svg . Finding creative ways to express yourself is not always easy when you’re all thumbs and you can’t keep the beat. Since I’m not entirely bad at programming, I gave generative art a try. I still get rubbish results, but I am having fun doing so. That’s success, as far as I am concerned. I’ve been…

Haskle.net

Haskle.net by Clément Delafargue on June 9, 2022 Tagged as: haskell , elm . A few days ago, I thought “haha, haskle, that sounds like wordle, but for haskell”. Fast forward two days, and I’m releasing haskle . It’s a small wordle-like game, where the goal is to guess a function from prelude given its (obfuscated) type. The type elements are gradually revealed as you try names. It’s really fun for…

So you want to revoke macaroons

So you want to revoke macaroons by Clement Delafargue on May 2, 2022 Tagged as: haskell . This post was originally published on the technical blog of my former employer, which is now offline. Macaroons are bearer tokens. As for every bearer token, the question of revocation is important: how can we stop a token from being accepted by services? Danny Glover as Roger Murtaugh in Lethal Weapon 3…

IFTTD, la suite

IFTTD, la suite by Clement Delafargue on May 5, 2021 Tagged as: haskell . J’ai eu la chance de participer à IFTTD pour parler de haskell ( https://ifttd.io/de-limportance-dun-typage-qui-fonctionne/ ). C’était très sympa mais évidemment dès la fin du podcast je me suis aperçu que je n’avais pas mentionné tout ce que je voulais. Je vous mets tout ça pêle-mêle ici, si l’épisode vous a intéressé,…
