It's as easy or as difficult as getting any other programming job. The more you know your stuff and good English, the better the job you'll find.

As I said in my post, I understand OP's frustration. I understand that he expected more consideration for his efforts to learn the language and his suggestions for improvement. The deficiency was only in his eyes though. Evan and the E

Actually, that's the thing: Elm is designed for people who don't know Haskell. It's designed for JavaScript developers who are attracted by the "no runtime exceptions" claim. If you're coming from Haskell, you&

Here's how I see his point. He came to Elm expecting a Haskell for the web. Elm has the completely opposite philosophy of keeping things simple, even if it means extra boilerplate. I can understand OP's frustration, but if he watc

Depends on what you're looking for. Keep in mind that the OP came to Elm with a Haskell mindset. Elm is simpler than Haskell (yes, at the cost of some boilerplate). If you program in JavaScript and you want a language with no runtime e

The thing is Javascript programmers are the target audience for Elm not Haskell programmers. I can understand the frustration if you're coming to Elm with a Haskell mindset.

You can be supportive of the person while criticizing something they did. Also, when you criticize, you can do it with arrogance or with kindness. As a signal of good feedback, I would use the number of adjectives in your feedback. Instead

You can be critical without sounding cynical and sarcastic. When you say something sarcastically, you're implying that you consider yourself better than that person. Do you think it's healthy to speak to a child in a cynical way?

Sorry for replying so late. Your findings have to be accepted by the others. If they're not accepted it's like they don't exist. Think of all the great theories that didn't take off at first, because nobody accepted them

There's a crucial difference between feeling angry and expressing it and directing that anger at someone.

This comes back to the two primary ways of motivating someone: the carrot or the stick. Most people use the stick, because that's what they're used to and it's what works faster. When it works. But it damages your relationshi

I'm thinking you can express the anger without making someone the target. For example, in the hypothetical phone call, what if you say to John: "John, I want to say I'm feeling very frustrated and angry right now. I expected

Yes, but that probabilistic reasoning is applied by humans with feelings which sometimes get in the way of their reason. Wanting to have those feelings simply go away is unrealistic.

I've been using Elm for the last 2 weeks on a project and I love it. I still get slapped around all the time by the compiler, but at least I know my program won't have any run-time exceptions.

During sessions, he stops speaking for many minutes, to let you focus on the breath. I found it useful at first, because I saw it as hand-holding. I couldn't focus for very long at the time and this helped. When I developed more focus,
