Fibers

Fibers are an abstraction over sequential computation, similar to threads but at a higher level. There are two ways to think about this model: by example, and abstractly from first principles. We'll start with the example.

(credit here is very much due to Fabio Labella, who's incredible Scala World talk describes these ideas far better than I can)

Callback Sequentialization

Consider the following three functions

megri

import cats.syntax.apply._
import io.circe._
import io.circe.literal._

object JsonValidation{
  def validate[A: Decoder]( f: HCursor => ACursor, pred: A => Boolean, err: A => String ): Decoder[A] =
    Decoder.instance(
      f andThen{ ac =>
        ac.as[A].flatMap( a =>
          if ( pred( a ) )

Hi all, I need some help understanding a piece of Doobie code from the examples. It is the StreamingCopy one: (https://github.com/tpolecat/doobie/blob/series/0.4.x/yax/example/src/main/scala/example/StreamingCopy.scala). I am using a modified version of the fuseMap2 example from that file. Here’s how I’ve modified it for my requirements:

  def fuseMap[F[_]: Catchable: Monad, A, B](
      source: Process[ConnectionIO, A],
      sink: Vector[A] => ConnectionIO[B],
      delete: ConnectionIO[Unit]
  )(
 sourceXA: Transactor[F],

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.

Cryptographic Best Practices

Putting cryptographic primitives together is a lot like putting a jigsaw puzzle together, where all the pieces are cut exactly the same way, but there is only one correct solution. Thankfully, there are some projects out there that are working hard to make sure developers are getting it right.

The following advice comes from years of research from leading security researchers, developers, and cryptographers. This Gist was [forked from Thomas Ptacek's Gist][1] to be more readable. Additions have been added from
