When trust and finance are not issues, not even considerations.

How much expense goes into software which needs to support daylight savings? How many bugs have occurred because of it?

Personally I deal with this problem a lot. It is a pain and expensive. Of course this is a problem because the time data my software ingests often doesn’t include the offset or zone. So I have to work around it. All for subtracting then add one hour for the year.

Why is it a bad idea?

And I doubt _any_ business has centralized their communications with Slack. I’m sure they are still using phones, and email and face to face communication.

You are wrong. Anyone can publish a package for Elm - without approval.

What you can’t publish is a package with JavaScript in it. And, if you understand Elm, this makes sense.

Elm has no runtime errors - which means any JS has to be perfectly designed. Elm is not to be bound to just a JavaScript platform. Elm has ports for interior.

As for bug fixes - there appear to be some cases where there are bugs, but I have never come across any. The langauge just works.

The slow pace of releases is a business adavatage - we don’t need to be upgrading every N months.

The last upgrade had tools to automate almost the entire process.

Anyway. Would you wager that Elm will fail? I will put up $1000 to your $9000.

The upgrade from Elm 0.17 to 0.18 was almost 100% automated. I thought it was going to be painful - but, thanks to the type system, wasn’t. Nothing like Angular.

I’ve been using Elm since 0.16. Development is slow and thoughtful. Perhaps 0.19 will be a disaster, but I doubt it.

In the meantime 0.18 has been a very productive language.

One thing to understand is Evan wants Elm to be a language and not bound to JavaScript. This is the sound motivation behind blocking native packages.

We have used tmux session sharing in the past over Vagrant share - none of us are on the same network. But I can’t say it is seemless. Tmate.io looks like a great solution.

Yes it is. Thank you

If I understand - with the piping you could share a read only terminal over the net?

My team has been using Atom and Teletype to pair - but no lightweight method to share the test console. Could this be it?

I often learn a lot at the check out lines here in Oregon. People chat, exchange information. Often banal, sometimes valuable. Always nice.

Keep in mind capacity does not equal generation.

A solar facility with 1MW of capacity will generate 1MW at it it’s peak moment, maybe, on a good day. Given the lat, weather and season, maybe you will get 8MW hours total for the day. Whereas a 1MW gas plant could produce 24MW hours for the day.

In other words you could have 100MW of renewable capacity and have 0 generation if it is too cold, dark or calm.

Are you looking at domestic generation or imports too?
