17+
18+
> In our previous post, we define a common problem around reproducible build plans. The solution we desired was some form of cryptographic hash based configuration and download system for packages, package metadata, and snapshot definitions.

- [Design patterns in Haskell: The strategy pattern](https://storm-country.com/blog/gof-strategy)
21+
22+
> This is part one of a series of posts translating the Gang of Four design patterns for object-oriented languages into Haskell. It is intended to be an expansion of Edward Z. Yang's Design Patterns in Haskell, elaborating each pattern into its own post.

- [Should Stackage ignore version bounds?](https://www.stackage.org/blog/2018/01/ignore-version-bounds)
25+
26+
> Stackage is a curated build process. We should be able to build a snapshot, run the test suites, and then say that, despite the package's claims to the contrary, two versions of a package are in fact compatible.

- [Uncurated Hackage layer](https://github.com/haskell/ecosystem-proposals/pull/6)
29+
30+
> The aim of this proposal is to separate these two purposes, by allowing authors to distinguish if they wish to opt-out of following the PVP and the attendant curation process that helps to maintain correct dependency information.

- [Making GHC an order of magnitude faster with one neat trick](https://pixel-druid.com/blog/making-ghc-an-order-of-magnitude-faster-with-one-neat-trick/)
33+
34+
> Under certain benchmarks, GHC is slower than C by 2x to 3x, and this GHC slowdown grows non-linearly with problem size. This is the story of identifying the source of the slowdown.

- [Selling laziness](http://www.usrsb.in/selling-laziness.html)
37+
38+
> Here is my attempt at explaining the case for laziness to those who aren't already persuaded. The following contains no tedious code examples, and, I hope, appeals to principles that all developers care about.

41+
42+
> bhoogle is a simple Hoogle terminal GUI written using Brick. This post is the annotated source code that should give you an idea of how to use Brick and how easy Brick makes building terminal UIs.

- [Why take ecstasy](http://reasonablypolymorphic.com/blog/why-take-ecstasy)
45+
46+
> So with all of the above frustrations in mind, and a lot of time to kill in a Thai airport, I felt like I could make a better ECS. Better is obviously subjective for things like this, but I wanted to optimize it for being used by humans.
