That's what!
I basically did most everything having to do with the design of the storage,
importing and making available the content, the searching, etc.
I didn't do any of the UI work, tho.

cool! So that's why you were fighting titanic, dynamically-generated
makefiles for! Better adwords...
all of it C++?

way to go, dude! Of course programmers stink at UI, score for Google
for realizing that.

They're not really dynamically-generated makefiles. :-) They're a
*replacement* for dyanmically generated makefiles.

This project is Java. Of course, there's about 9 layers of abstraction
underneath it, including Java compiling to javascript, protobufs compiling
to java, protobufs compiling to C++, protobufs compiling to Haskell (for
some bizarre reason), C++ dynamically generating Java code, etc etc.

No, other programmers coded the UI, just not me. And we have a guy sort of
designing the UI in photoshop.
This of course is just the first phase of the project, but I'm counting it a
huge success. And there was cake.

Wait - somebody is compiling something *to* Haskell?! o_O

The cake is a lie.

surely they needed some monoid over functors to deal with all the
abstraction layers.

perhaps it was sent by Microsoft?

Then why not just write the code in Haskell in the first place? Why
would you *compile* something into Haskell?

As always, the poor UI-QA guys get left out in the cold. :-) Darren, you need
to call in the content-proofreaders. "Advertsing?" What a strange new Gerund
you've found! :-)

I looked at the page and have not a clue what it is about or what the
intended audience is. By default I assume it is not me, so I closed the
page.

Someone at google invented "protocol buffers", because they were only ever
exposed to the worse-is-better solutions for communicating complex data over
networks and never stopped and asked themselves "hey, what did the people do
20 years ago when the entire internet carried less traffic in a year than
the phone calls on mother's day?" And hence they were ignorant of ASN.1 and
invented this lame-ass alternative called "protocol buffers." Which
apparently compiles into every language Google supports, including Haskell.

Bull. See attached.

Heh. Did you submit feedback? That would get it fixed, but I'll bop this to
my work account to see.
