I had a blast talking with @absynce about Elm, decoders, growth, and note-taking on this episode of ElmTown. Thanks for having me on! Non Elm developers just interested in note-taking, jump to about 23min mark. elm.town/episodes/elm-town-8…

Ultimately, we human beings depend on nature, so we must preserve our close relations with her. Sometimes we seem to think that technology will solve our problems and allow us to do whatever we like. This Earth Day let’s remember that the reality is we have to protect our world.

I'm gonna try a new thing: livestreaming coding on @zeddotdev! (It's open-source, so I can just work in public.) If anyone's interested in seeing me use Zed to build Zed, I'm planing to make the first livestream be tomorrow (Wednesday, January 29) at 1pm Eastern Time.

For the past 6 years I haven't had this problem. I still have the same distractions, family and friends still come first. But now I write @elmlang. When I come back to my project, the tooling helps guide me. The docs are solid.
