A Heroku app of mine went down starting at ~7:43pm Eastern US (I KNOW, I need to migrate it elsewhere), and in a separate, weird "thing is down" instance, some pages in the Epic healthcare app seem to be offline. Also seeing that YouTube issue.

Same! uBlock on Firefox lists ~280 scripts blocked

I remember reading this when you published it! I was considering going at the time, as well as some years after, but this + work + starting a family had me choose different. I don't know if you've written a follow-up, but I would 100% read that.

I decided to start learning Zig this past week, and typing in "zig book" to a search engine led me to that project. After a handful of pages, I had no clue what was going on and couldn't follow it (that said, I am new).

I quickly found https://ziglang.org/learn/, and the guide is great. For ziglings, make sure you're on the latest dev build (as it says in the README)! (Edit: or get the tagged release for the version you have!)

For what it's worth, I recently played the 25yr release of Half-Life on Macbook Pro M1 using Parallels with Windows on Steam. I re-played the entire game over a few months, and it was a really great experience.

It's disheartening to hear that such an excellent game was kept from entire platforms because of what happened in that story.

RailsCasts was an incredible help in my early web career, and I was so so grateful for the time and effort that went in to each episode. I've wondered about this story for years, and it's wonderful to see this story start to get told. I hope Ryan is doing okay and in a good place!

Wow, I'm horrified that the post was received this way. How did it make you feel bullied? Was this because of it using imperatives with "do" and "don't"?

edit: the real-talk takeaways at the end are worth reading, I think (I'm biased, though)

Ah, I missed it — probably because I haven't seen any of these "heaping praise" comments yet

Since this was originally posted, the inline PDF is hidden an replaced with a link on smaller screen sizes.

That's an interesting point. When I taught, I took this same approach — thanks for reminding me of it.

The fix for this is going out right now, and I gave you and your original comment credit in the article. You rock!

This originated as a fun talk at the Auckland Functional Programming meetup. Given there is so much "here's how to get your team into FP" content out there already, this felt like an engaging approach and was a nice talk to share with folx.

I disagree that it's annoying and click baity — else I wouldn't have went to all the effort — but if it's not for you, it's not for you.

I'm doing it wrong! Thanks for looking into this. I will 100% fix this.

It's hard for me to tell if your account is a joke or not because of the "yakshaving" part, so I'll respond as if it isn't.

I totally agree with you! I can't say that conversation belongs alongside this post, though.

I'm with you

TS and Elm were included in a "Don't have static type checking" section, alongside Flow, ReasonML, and a blank space for all the others. The point I was going for was that there are numerous options for static type checking for the web out there.

That's really weird, and I'm sorry that happened. I'm on Firefox Developer Edition on macOS, and it displays inline for me, but that could be my settings.

I'll take a look at using an embed tonight. Thanks for the feedback!

Should be fixed now. Sorry about that

Sorry about that :(
