I think there are two parts here. A "time ago in words" library as a pure function of two dates (now and the date in question). This is independent of where the dates come from.
A subscription that provides you the "now" date at a frequency you specify, which gets stored in the model. I don't think there's a way to ask for the date only when *update* would otherwise be called, and you don't want that (the time should update if the user leaves the computer alone for ten minutes). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Elm Discuss" group.
