This is a silly request, but it has been my white whale for a while. For the past few years I've set up every proof by contradiction with "Presume, foolishly, ...". I thought I got it from this series of stories, but every once in a while I give them a close read and fail to find anything like it. Maybe I saw it in an HN comment? Anyone remember something like that?
I can't help you, sorry, but I know where I have now got it from :)

“Yes queens!” You murmur. This is, sadly, not that kind of interview.

Somehow, making something simple ornate and complicated neither appeals to me as a main story point nor as a writing style. I just find it really grating.
It is a pun into multiple directions at once, and super nerdy (and "correct") at the same time. What do you want more? Loved it..
Agree 100%. It's heavy-handed in the way that bible fables are heavy-handed. Crisp prose doesn't imply dull prose.
It also channels worst kind of self-indulgent Haskell type-level programming that I've see in real-world projects. That isn't funny when you have to rip out the guts of the system because the head developer left for an even better Haskell gig.

Do yourself a favor and hover over their site title above the article, really clean effect

You couldn't come up with a better example of why we have the HN rule that says "please use the original title, unless it is misleading or linkbait". The title of this story is "Typing The Technical Interview". The editorialization this submitter added absolutely steps on the joke.
Fixed now. Submitted title was "Typing the Technical Interview(solving a problem using only Haskell type system) (2017)".
What was the editorialized title?
Typing the technical interview (solving a problem only using Haskell type system)
Always wonderful, but (2017) - you got me excited that there might be a new one in the series.
There are, at least, after Typing: https://aphyr.com/tags/interviews
Latest (with a very conclusion-ish tone) was 2020.
