Let's proceed in reverse order: 1. You don't get to define evidence-backed criticism to be only the criticism that you appreciate. 2. I didn't "attack" Richard. I pointed out an inconsistency with other recent…
When did evidence-backed criticism become synonymous with trolling? Also, which statement exactly was angry? (Let alone rubbish? Or, gasp, vomit?) It seems you want all Elm news to be positive Elm news. So does the…
I've seen Evan's talk. Evan confuses the presentation of features with the value of those features. (I suppose one could solve the difficulties people have in learning Mathematics by throwing out everything after…

Your solution redefines the word "local" to mean "global." Yes, you can store a component's intrinsically local state as field in your global model and then use a specialized update function that is reached by a switch…
That might solve the cursor issue, but it's a bigger issue than cursor state. The real issue is that Elm doesn't treat its programmers like grown-ups. That sounds harsh, so let me explain . . . I've drank enough of the…
Reflex is great (and its author is a genius) but it's not really useful yet for non-desktop apps. Because Reflex + GHCJS is impossibly slow on mobile. As an experiment, try using chrome (iOS) or android to load this:…
@rtfeldman -- I think your response is a bit disingenuous since only yesterday you wrote, in response to a question about cursor state, this: "I wouldn't maintain cursor state in the model; I'd just implement the port…
