Become a sponsor to Justin Le
Hi! My name is Justin.
I did my PhD in Computational & Data Science, doing some pretty heavy numerical analysis and machine learning work in the process. But I also love the safety, maintainability, denotative semantics and guided development process that comes with working in Haskell. So, I'm committed to help bringing all of the benefits of Haskell -- type-safety, static verification, type-driven development, denotative frameworks, and fearless refactoring -- to the world of numerical analysis and machine learning. You might have even read my blog where I explore these topics with an educational goal. Along the way, I hope to do my own part in growing the Haskell ecoystem as well!
The Projects You're Supporting
I keep a dashboard of my open source projects in Haskell, and their statuses. But my projects tend to fall into one of a few camps:
-
Numerics & Data:
- backprop, backprop-learn (in-progress)
- mutable
- hmatrix-vector-sized, hmatrix-backprop
- emd, wavelets (in-progress)
- hamilton
- interactive-plot
- bins
- opto (in-progress)
-
Type-Safety & Design
As you can see, most of my projects help push applications of what is possible in Haskell in terms of numerical analysis and data science as well as type safety and maintainability.
What You're Sponsoring
Sponsor me at any tier and you help allow me to devote more of my time to writing and maintaining open source libraries, developing and finishing new ones, and also to continue publishing new material on my educational blog. The stresses of life are real, and every cent helps :) Also, do feel free to donate or sponsor if you just feel like showing appreciation -- every gesture means a lot to me, and really helps encourage me in what I do.

$1 a month
SelectTogether, we can change the world :) A $1 sponsorship signals that what I am doing is important to you, and gives me encouragement in my day to day life and confidence in the importance of OSS.
$5 a month
SelectHelp sponsor the cost of conference travel and web maintenance, and also part of the occasional coffee it takes to keep me going :)
$25 a month
SelectYou're my favorite :D I help out everyone I can, but at this tier I will try my best to feature request, bugs, and issues.
$50 a month
SelectYou're the best :) Have a seat at the table in deciding what sort of blog post topics and Haskell ecosystem improvements I spend time on next. You will also be featured at the end of all of my sponsored blog posts -- so everyone can know how amazing you are!
