"The road to callback hell is paved with #(...) lambdas."

This might be the biggest emacs news I've been around for. I'm so excited that these folks tracked down this bug and made it right. πŸ™

A nice snippet demonstrating why I love in (GardenCSS). Every pre-processor gives you &, but being able to use assoc/dissoc to modify a map is pretty nice.

"I will take for granted the fact that Lisp is commonly acknowledge to be a FP language, so I will not explain why Lisp is a FP language." Oi. Time to figure out where this is commonly acknowledged (and why Rich Hickey didn't think it was all that common when he made an FP lispy). tilde.town/%7Eramin_hal9001/ar

Clojure is an awesome functional programming language. If you grew up on imperative OO languages then learning it is truly mind bending (and fun).

I have 30 free guided code walk throughs that will help get you started:

@_jonesian The emacs kill ring is brilliant. One of those things that alters you entire way of thinking about solutions.

FTP, WWW and others all are subdomains. It is just that Chromium and co decided to hide the www part for no good reason.

I still need the book, but look forward to this!

Wed, Sep 7: Clojure Tokyo hosts @viebel, author of Data-Oriented Programming, who'll discuss ways to communicate data-oriented programming.

Because if you expect "just use maps!" to make sense to OOP programmers... 🀑

Why is simple capitalization and appearing to care about your subject lines such an obvious shibboleth for spam?

This is why I avoid using the shorthands. Just be clear: padding-left, padding-right, padding-top, padding-bottom. Make readable code. It's worth the keystrokes.

In concept, Quora really struck upon something. But in practice, they botched it. Still, sometimes there is valuable content there. Other times, like this, a single t.*t can answer.

1- #!
2- Ecosystem and inertia
3- Why would Microsoft care what Linus thinks? Also, see #2

I'm pretty sure this command is coolest commands in Magit (@magit_emacs):

`C-c M-g t': Traces the function/defun point is in (or on, depending on where you invoke it.)

You get a complete git log history tracing all the changes made to that function. Awesome!
