Looks awesome, one of my frustrations with jq has always been that I can't see what data I'm going to be retrieving until I run it.
Agreed. I don’t if it’s for everyone, but i love it. No commute, healthier food, access to a bed for a quick nap, and a nice office. 10/10 would do again.

I’d love to know more about this too.

I just convinced the company that i work for to do exactly this. We’re small so there isn’t a lot of extra cash lying around, but we just started with a low number and we’ll increase it as we go along.

I'm likely guilty of being a naive technologist. I appreciate this different perspective.
Ah, cool. Thanks for the explanation.
What is k-anonymity?
Although this is mostly true, it's not entirely true (at least in the house).

I'll need to check out lenses. I've run in to a few annoying this working with records so far so I was hoping some progress was in the works.

Out of curiosity what progress has been made in regards to improving the ergonomics of records in Haskell? Stephen references that an answer is in the works, but it looks like it has stalled out.
Re:When Haskell is Faster than C (2013) on Wednesday June 08, 2016 @01:08AM (#11860158)
I think it's worth pointing out though that idiomatic C is probably going to be more consistently performant. It seems common to run in to situations in Haskell where one change can cause 10X speedup, but I don't see that nearly as often with C code. I don't have a lot of evidence on hand to support this, just what I've observed personally. This seen fair? Relevant?
