Re: Magical function to support reflection

I meant to define reify for the Tagged representation in terms of reify': reify :: forall a r . a -> (forall (s :: *) . Reifies s a => Proxy s -> r) -> r reify a f = reify' (unproxy f) a Further, I figured I'd look into reifyNat, and I came up with this: reifyNat' :: forall a r . (forall (n ::

Competing with C in a simple loop

Trying to resurrect nofib/fibon

Hi all, I went into the rabbit hole that starts here https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11501 So far I know that: 1. fibon is not built regularly by any CI and it bitrotted significantly. 2. Makefile's for fibon use undefined variables like INPLACE_HSC2HS_PGM. Probably those were
