The Elm Architecture[1] makes it easy to reason about code. You render the current state. You create a new state by applying a message to the current state. 1. https://guide.elm-lang.org/architecture/

Yes. If I have a 5-year lease on a building, I can sublease it to you for 5 years, but I can't offer to sell it to you.

Then you know that it's going to take at least, say two weeks, one week for the first implementation and a week to finish it if it works. On the high end, could it take more than 2 years? 1 year? 6 months? Stop when you are 80% conf

redo[1] with shell scripts has become my goto method of dealing with multi-step data problems. It makes it easy to review each step of data retrieval, clean-up, transformation, etc. I use mlr, sqlite, rye, souffle, and goawk in the shell s
