Jappie Klooster writes Jappie Journal, a personal blog at jappie.me about programming. Since 2022, 5 different Hacker News readers have linked it 14 times, most often “Haskell Vibes”. No feed was found, so read it on the site itself.

Why HN links it
HN readers link this blog for a post on Haskell written with AI coding agents ("haskell-vibes") and for a website-launch post describing images filtered down to EGA-16 colours.

Technical blog by Jappie Klooster. Haskell, Nix, functional programming, and software engineering.

HN discussionI'll be doing a v.5 eventually and fix up v.4 - looking like August. This isn't a bootstrap "theme". It's more of a fork, the code goes through significant changes but maintains compatibility. It's used in weird places, like on Gentoo for April fools 2015 : https://jappie.me/website-launch.html (images go through a number of filters to emulate ega-16 color reduction). Pretty funny to see this as one of my most succe…
