Applied Functional Programming with Scala - Notes

1. Mastering Functions

A function is a mapping from one set, called a domain, to another set, called the codomain. A function associates every element in the domain with exactly one element in the codomain. In Scala, both domain and codomain are types.

Whiteboard Picture Cleaner - Shell one-liner/script to clean up and beautify photos of whiteboards!

Description

This simple script will take a picture of a whiteboard and use parts of the ImageMagick library with sane defaults to clean it up tremendously.

The script is here:

#!/bin/bash
convert "$1" -morphology Convolve DoG:15,100,0 -negate -normalize -blur 0x1 -channel RBG -level 60%,91%,0.1 "$2"

a simple git branching model

a simple git branching model (written in 2013)

This is a very simple git workflow. It (and variants) is in use by many people. I settled on it after using it very effectively at Athena. GitHub does something similar; Zach Holman mentioned it in this talk.

Update: Woah, thanks for all the attention. Didn't expect this simple rant to get popular.

Understanding Comparative Benchmarks

I'm going to do something that I don't normally do, which is to say I'm going to talk about comparative benchmarks. In general, I try to confine performance discussion to absolute metrics as much as possible, or comparisons to other well-defined neutral reference points. This is precisely why Cats Effect's readme mentions a comparison to a fixed thread pool, rather doing comparisons with other asynchronous runtimes like Akka or ZIO. Comparisons in general devolve very quickly into emotional marketing.

But, just once, today we're going to talk about the emotional marketing. In particular, we're going to look at Cats Effect 3 and ZIO 2. Now, for context, as of this writing ZIO 2 has released their first milestone; they have not released a final 2.0 version. This implies straight off the bat that we're comparing apples to oranges a bit, since Cats Effect 3 has been out and in production for months. However, there has been a post going around which cites various compar

I needed code to serve static files from an Akka HTTP server. I wanted to use fs2 to read the static file. Michael Pilquist recommended using streamz to convert from an fs2 Task to an Akka Source. This is what I came up with. (It does actually work.)
object StaticFile {
// Various necessary imports. Notes:
//
// 1. fs2 is necessary. See https://github.com/functional-streams-for-scala/fs2
// 2. streamz is necessary. See https://github.com/krasserm/streamz
// 3. Apache Tika is used to infer MIME types from file names, because it's more reliable and
// fully-featured than using java.nio.file.Files.probeContentType().
//
// If using SBT, you'll want these library dependencies and resolvers:
