I love seeing the occasional phone box in a quaint village which has been converted into a super compact library. It reminds me that community spirit and trust are alive.

What story does that tell?

React's would say 2022 - https://github.com/facebook/react/releases

There's engineering effort happening behind the scenes on both projects, the releases have slowed, and big changes are coming to both Elm and React.

Just a small and polite heads up - that mobile menu isn't keyboard accessible. Regardless, it's a lovely design.

Care to explain why?

As a general overview, I enjoy Dr Greger's definition of processed food - 'Nothing bad added, nothing good taken away'.

Imagine the unfortunate child who's been fed peanut butter to only find out it wasn't really butter.

It's about time we put and end to peanut butter and coconut milk. These products have the causing consumer confusion for too damn long. /s

Hang on, I think you’re muddying the waters here. A vegan diet is purely done for animal compassion. A vegan diet, a plant-based diet and even whole food plant-based diet are different diets.

Veganism is a lifestyle based around the notion of reducing as much harm to animals a feasibly possible. No one claims that a vegan diet is centred around health. After all, you could be vegan and eat nothing but Oreo’s and Dorito’s.

So they're increasing the amount of whole plant-based food they're eating?

B12, Omega 3 with both (DHA and EPA), and vitamin D during the winter months.

I had some blood work done after 2 years of being vegan, largely to ensure my dietary shift hadn't caused any problems. This tested everything from cholesterol (lipid profile), iron profile, testosterone, B9 & 12, liver function, CRP and more. All markers we're either in the optimal or normal ranges. I eat reasonably well (I'm not perfect) and I try to keep processed foods - including fake meats - down to a minimum

Pattern matching was recently added to C#. I can't say quite how well it's been embedded into the language. I always hear great things about F#, ADTs, pattern matching, nice type system and it integrates nicely into the rest of the .NET ecosystem.

there's not a day that goes by that I don't think about this

Elm is perfectly stable and usable. It's a shame there's not a little more communication / a wider core team working on the the parts of Elm that could reduce the friction for the average web development task.

There's Gren https://gren-lang.org/ which is a fork of Elm. Gren has nodeJS and web storage a support, along with a package manager which can install from github (iirc). I'm eagerly watching the development of this project, hopefully it can provider value and grow into a strong alternative.

I loved working with Elm. It forced me to grow as a developer and appreciate all the benefits advantages that comes with a pure functional programming language. I truly hope Evan can start to win back the lost mindshare.
