Good point, bad analogy. Twitter treats pedophiles really well.

The 50% divorce rate is a myth

Source?

It was true in the 1980s, but there are a few caveats with it:

1.) It measures the chance that a given marriage will end in divorce, not the chance that a given person will get divorced (which was closer to 40%). The stat is skewed upwards by a few serial divorcers: 60% of second marriages end in divorce, and 73% of third marriages. [1]

2.) The divorce rate has fallen: Millenials are 18% less likely to get divorced than Baby Boomers are (largely because they're less likely to get married in the first place unless they're in a stable relationship). [2]

3.) It's heavily class-based. College educated professionals have only a ~20% chance of getting divorced, while unskilled blue-collar laborers have a ~50% chance of getting divorced. [3]

Millennials are still young. Maybe they just need more time to catch up to the previous divorce rate.

There’s also revery: https://github.com/revery-ui/revery

Native cross platform apps built using the react paradigm written in reasonml/ocaml

And the vim based text editor being built using it: https://github.com/onivim/oni2

I think you should have a discussion section where you talk about potential implications (possible password leaks via S3).

How is building a barrier along the border a racist policy?

Context is important. For the Republican party, that means decades of using "border security" as a dog whistle for keeping out Mexican immigrants.

For Trump in particular, that means his speeches as candidate, "They're sending people that have lots of problems, and they're bringing those problems with us. They're bringing drugs. They're bringing crime. They're rapists. And some, I assume, are good people." He is a fearmongerer, and this is just another step of playing along fears of immigrants.

I’ve found that Elm people don’t like jokes in general.

Is this statement also a joke? :)

“And Phoenix would be the Rails to Erlang's Ruby (Elixir). The learning curve is steep, you will need to learn OTP. Which is probably why adoption lags."

The author has no idea what they are talking when it comes to the alternatives.

I was making simple CRUD apps in Phoenix (the types of apps I would normally use rails for) for a year before I even looked at OTP. You can become productive in elixir and Phoenix very quickly especially if you come from a ruby/rails background.

I recall a blog post by dockyard where they said they had new hires making commits within the first week.

The author isn't wrong. You need to learn OTP to know that you don't need it (at least in the very beginning).

When I was learning Phoenix, I spent a substantial amount of time learning Elixir as well and OTP is one of the first few things they put in front of you. Don't get me wrong, I loved learning about it personally, but I am not surprised that a lot of people would consider it too much effort.

I would take a risk on him as a remote employee. But no way would I be willing to take a risk for an on site position. Especially with #MeToo

OP maybe you should focus on remote jobs and be transparent upfront?

He's hirable. I'm not sure about the other companies, but would take a guess that a big name company like Goldman or Expedia wouldn't take the chance with him before #metoo, not to mention now.

Agreed, I love Elm but the lack of documentation was a pretty big hurdle for me. Especially because I came from using elixir/phoenix on the backend which I found had excellent guides and docs (for language, framework and most packages).
