[elm-discuss] Re: Elm events 2017

elm-conf 2017 is coming back on September 28. That one might qualify. ;) Haven't announced more "formally" yet because we need to redo the website first to be more informative. On Thursday, January 5, 2017 at 10:49:08 PM UTC-5, Michael B wrote: > > Hi Rupert, > > I'm the author of

Re: [elm-discuss] Emphasizing /r/elm more

Here, if a newcomer posts a basic question, many people will ignore them, but the poster doesn't know that. Someone will post a solution, or a link to one, and they will be on their way. On /r/elm, they see their post sitting at 1,0 or -1 votes, and and up feeling like newcomer questions

[elm-discuss] Elm events 2017

Thinking of drawing up a list of events, dates and places where Elm will be on the menu in 2017. Would people be interested in contributing what they know to build up the list? Also, I have a feeling someone may already have done this, in which case point me to it. -- You received this

Re: [elm-discuss] Re: Emphasizing /r/elm more

My main hesitation about reddit is that, even on the best-case subs like /r/rust, newcomer posts tends to get downvoted or ignored. Here, if a newcomer posts a basic question, many people will ignore them, but the poster doesn't know that. Someone will post a solution, or a link to one, and they

[elm-discuss] Re: Feature: 'where' expressions (continued from GitHub)

@Bob H & @Andrew R: Thank you. @Janis: It's likely that we could continue to produce extensions/refactors to each other's examples for eternity (which isn't a bad thing, I don't think this is a waste of time at all). In the case of such a `munge` in your example, yeah, following a "factor out

I'm a fan of ECS, not too difficult to roll your own. Doesn't rely on any fancy types. On Jan 5, 2017 9:50 AM, "Martin Cerny" wrote: Hi Andrew, I don't think there are any direct obstacles to doing the same with extensible records, but I think extensible records also have no

[elm-discuss] Re: Game entities design question

Hi Andrew, I don't think there are any direct obstacles to doing the same with extensible records, but I think extensible records also have no advantages, produce code that is IMHO slightly harder to read, and could introduce some problems in larger codebases. Note that OOP game engines I've
