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.

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

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

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 cholester

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 th

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 Gr

They are choosing TypeScript, they're opting into type checking with JSDoc and tsc. For a brand new code base, you could argue that it would make sense to jump in and write TypeScript, but JSDoc and tsc will get them most of the benefi

This was the same situation for the UEFA Women’s Euros in England this year. For those wondering, the app was simply for storing, transferring, and displaying your tickets. A ticket being a QR code for you to scan at the stadium turnstiles.

Just shy of 500 GBP a year for myself via Bupa. That includes a fairly compressive policy excluding dental. Family are all fallback to the NHS (sorry family).

Can this be circumvented by a very strict Content-Security-Policy?

As a free resource then https://elmprogramming.com/ does a good job of going beyond the official Elm guide. For far as books are concerned, Elm in Action by Richard Feldman and Programming Elm: Build Safe and Maintainable F

I wonder if groupBy should have had some sort of into argument. Otherwise, we may end up with four groupBy methods. groupBy, groupByToMap, groupByToWeakMap and groupByToRecord (should records land). Edit: this has already been discussed h

The pros and cons listed hear mirror my own views of Elm. Although, we’ve only got a handful of small Elm apps in production it’s a joy to work on them. I can rip into them with a fairly big refactor, fix the compiler errors and be confiden

I believe one of these birds ended up at my fathers garden in North Lincolnshire. The bird spent the best part of a week in his garden, showing no signs of injury, nor any sign of wanting to fly off straight back off. After a week of food a

Elm has `Debug.todo`. If you were to use this, it allows your app to compile in development but the app would crash should it hit this code. Elm's compiler will prevent you from creating a production application with a `Debug.todo` sti
