No worries at all! I didn't take offense, it's very easy to forget one or two projects when quite frankly, Elm has managed to spawn or inspire so many!

Derw, a human written Elm fork by me, is largely self-hosted. I took that decision with inspiration from Go: 1) it gave me a large codebase which could be used to assess language features on and 2) it gave me motivation to improve generaliz

You're missing Derw from that list: https://www.derw-lang.com/ . Predates all the others, and is from a former core team member (me). I'm also the author of server-side Elm experiment known as [take-home]( https:&#

Native Welsh speaker here! It has always been a dream of mine to go to Y Wladfa, and share a bond through language with people there. One fun fact - my dad took some higher-learning Welsh exam as an adult. They had to time the exam to match

Oh, there were definitely multiple things wrong. Bear in mind that this was 12 years ago, so this is just what I took away with me as an on-going learning. Obviously showing errors to users is an obvious takeaway, but it's a side discu

We actually did test. We didn't test in the exact same conditions or environment (i.e with no internet access), as we didn't find out about the no-internet restriction until the last minute. That is covered in this paragraph: >

Author here! Indeed - I have an extended equivalent from CGI-bin that I'm including in the full story in the book, since running things as a script vs as a program has different implications for killing the running process. The pattern

Author here! The way I put this practice into place involves accepting that people will just do whatever they find easiest, regardless of whether it's technically the right thing to do. I account for that when I'm designing APIs,

Author here! In this case, I think the actual API we used would take a callback for success, and a callback for errors. I just used JS an example for how unnatural it would be to call something that exits the entire script early. I have a b

The "trendy stack" comment seems misplaced. CS is famously written in Ruby on Rails, not PHP, perhaps one of the most "trendy" stacks at the time[0]. Coincidentally, CS is also awfully slow with frequent errors. Managing

Nice! I did a similar project, more focused on creating an Elm architecture framework in TypeScript here[1]). I based it on implementing virtual-dom logic for both Elm codebases and Derw's renderer. Since it's a decent amount of c

Interesting. In the Nordics, we have a couple of sites dedicated to fact checking news stories, done by real people. I think these kinds of automated tools can be helpful too, but needs to be tied to reliable sources. This became pretty app

I (kinda) solved this with neuro-lingo[0] with the concept of pinning. Basically, once you have a version of a function implementation that works, you can pin it and it won't be regenerated when it's "compiled". The alte

I wrote a toy language along these lines a while back[0]. Basically, types and function signatures, with comments in English, produce a valid program. You write a type and a comment, and the compiler goes through GPT to run the code. Fun no
