That's fine. I don't think the ecosystem needs any more people that get their blood pumping over some inconsequential name reuse.
To get Elm confused with the email client with this title, you'd have to not know the Elm language existed. So it seems like it's a moment to go "oh I see, that exists" than cursing the world because you thought "Elm changed my mind about unpopular languages" somehow referred to an email client.
But I get it. It's cathartic to be angry on the internet. The angry shadow boxing just gets pretty old for the rest of us no matter what kind of developer you are.
- Retra 9y agoI'm talking about the uselessness of saying "I used X, now I use Y." WHY does one change what one uses? For reasons supposedly. But of course nobody ever provides reasons. It is enough to simply drop names. Print out your resume. Because heaven forbid anybody provide some real data that shows why one platform is better than another. I'm certainly not confused about what Elm is. That'd be easy enough to find out. But "why you stopped using it" sure as shit isn't something I can google.
