Hello 👋 Recently there was some [discussion](https://discourse.haskell.org/t/fork-basement-as-baseplate/12415) around forking basement as baseplate. After some investigation I found out the basement library isn’t all that useful, so I decided to fork memory instead, as [ram](https://hackage.haskell.org/package/ram), which no longer depends on basement.
