Introduction to the lambda calculus
A Brave New Hope briefly reviews an interesting text on the lambda calculus. This reminded me of one of the books that got me started in functional programming: An introduction to functional programming through lambda calculus by Greg Michaelson. It is an enjoyable and fast-paced text which I’d recommend if you’re looking for a good introduction to the subject.
First public release of halberd
Halberd is a tool I wrote two years ago to detect HTTP load balancers. I recently decided I should polish it, write some documentation and release it.
You can be use halberd as a stand-alone command or as a Python module to be imported by other software.
Here it is for your enjoyment.
