From Haskell Weekly, about build systems a la cart...
# random

We might want to reach out to the author. They wrote a 55 page paper about build systems a la carte in April. Didn’t mention Pants v2, and I’m not sure they realize the engine change
h
We probably should, since v2 is also a monadic build system with early cut-off, parallelism and explicit parallelism (if I understand the usage of those adjectives correctly)

mm, i hadn’t seen that post. very interesting, thanks
the stuff about early cutoff in particular.

Haskell Weekly has lots of gems, even if you don’t know Haskell

this is almost certainly related to https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/issues/11290, which is… fun.
looking at it this afternoon.
wow. it is exactly this.
wild.
bleeding edge, but still chasing the haskell people =P

Love it! We should reach out to that author...

Also, once fixed this could be a great blog post
