There are people I know in the national security community who are terrified that the US government is sleepwalking into a 9/11-level catastrophe. Focusing finite resources on nonsense like this instead of credible threats -- that is the reason they're so worried. www.wsj.com/world/greenl...

Oooh, MirageOS+unikraft PR has appeared from @tarides.com, which should allow much easier deployment of OCaml code to the @unikraft.cloud ! github.com/ocaml/opam-r...

This video was posted on Twitter by the official account of the People's Republic of China's embassy in the United States. The Chinese Communist Party is lecturing the US Republican President by using a Reagan speech on the importance of free trade. We are really living in the Weird timeline.

≪We estimate the supply-side value of widely-used OSS is $4.15 billion, but that the demand-side value is much larger at $8.8 trillion. We find that firms would need to spend 3.5 times more on software than they currently do if OSS did not exist.≫ From www.hbs.edu/faculty/Page... #opensource

Scratching another old itch, I've utilized a wonderful hack by @edwintorok.bsky.social to get the Thread-modes of Lin and STM working much better 🤓 github.com/ocaml-multic... (as in: from defunct to decent) It even works on OCaml 4 too! 😄

> We have been using OCaml 5 in production since the middle of February 2025, and the rollout has been entirely uneventful. This was a highlight for me, after having worked to stress test it over the past ~3 years. There are other nuggets in @semgrep.bsky.social's latest blog post though... 🤓

Finally - Relocatable OCaml in “fully relocatable” mode is also reproducible (as long as the C compiler is reproducible) and passes its testsuite 😮‍💨🥳🎉🍾🎊

Dear all After a bit over 3 years my contract with Tarides has come to an end. It has been great - working with and being team lead for an exceptional group of software engineers and - applying my property-based testing skills to stress test and help get the multicore OCaml5 runtime+stdlib in shape.

I got Linux running in a PDF file using a RISC-V emulator. PDFs support Javascript, so Emscripten is used to compile the TinyEMU emulator to asm.js, which runs in the PDF. It boots in about 30 seconds and emulates a riscv32 buildroot system. linux.doompdf.dev/linux.pdf github.com/ading2210/li...

Over the past couple of days, I've been scratching a 3-year old QCheck(2) itch github.com/c-cube/qchec... It's nice to finally make progress on it! 😃 #ocaml #quickcheck #pbt #fp

If you wanted no leaks you should have gone into Settings -> Security -> Configure privacy & security -> Privacy options -> Other -> Configure -> Media interface and clicked “Disallow.” The Leak setting is on by default but we understand your privacy is important so we’ve made it easy to opt out

I'm really happy to present, with @tarides.com , #OCaml Eglot, an #Emacs (minor) mode for editing OCaml code, using LSP through Eglot, the built-in #LSP client of Emacs: github.com/tarides/ocam... Feedback, contribution and RT much appreciated

Published a blog post about cram tests (fancy snapshot tests) in dune. It's a bit of a tutorial style and showcases a feature I truly like about dune. Hope you like it! sancho.dev/blog/cram-t...
