Following on from today's lunchtime break, we will have @quoll focusing on Datalog (14:00 UTC), then after that we have @ericnormand on the Art of Domain Modelling (14:30 UTC).

Dragan used to make optimized numeric and deep-learning solutions, leveraging gpus and obtaining did performance leveraging nvidia, BLAS, more... in under 9000 LOC. Clojure is pretty good that way. @draganrocks is not bad either.

So excited to see @draganrocks giving an explanation to his tools. I didn't actually know about Deep Diamond for Tensors, or that tensors = "unimaginable vectors" @reClojure

Watching @ella_hoeppner present @reClojure what has developed with Vlojure left me speechless. SOOO cool! I am eager to use Vlojure as a teaching tool for onboarding budding , and exploring the power of Lisp syntax as enabling/alternative to visual programming.

Some impressive displays of generative art, especially from @jackrusher! Beautiful! @reClojure

Bright and early here! Well, it won't be bright for another few hours, but the proceedings are making me feel bright!

Enjoying some tiling goodness when limited to one screen and trying to reference multiple resources in an attempt to grok java.time API's in Clojure.
So many things involved here:

This makes a nice elevator pitch from a very accomplished Java expert, Brian Goetz: "Clojure is one of the very few production-ready JVM languages that isn't simply trying to be a better Java." youtu.be/GedrGWu16_I

Learning ? My book recs in order!

1. Getting Clojure
2. Elements of Clojure (read even if ya don't Clojure)
3. Clojure, The Essential Reference rb.gy/oblheo

The 3rd reco is NEW. The detail, approach and sheer knowledge dropped is heroic🤯🙇‍♂️🙏 Thanks @reborg

Clojure, The Essential Reference

The Clojure standard library is a treasure trove of functions and macros that have been battle-tested over the years to solve the most challenging programming problems. Knowing what's available in the standard library not only liberates programmers from mundane tasks like connecting to data sources, parsing XML, dealing with numbers but also more advanced problems like handling concurrency and parallelism. Having a deep knowledge of the Clojure standard library helps you solve problems quickly and more efficiently.</p> Clojure, The Essential Reference</i> is an extensive reference to the standard library but it doesn't read as a dull list of functions. In addition to providing clear explanations for each topic, this guide is full of real-world examples, links, and background information. The book approaches difficult topics by illustrating them in a readable and pleasant way, using visual structure to emphasize the essential information. The book is designed to be used as a reference, but each function provides an interesting reading on its own, offering insight into functional and general programming. By using this reference, you will be able to make the most idiomatic and efficient choice while developing a Clojure application. </p>

A detailed and richly sourced look at and then in particular, with the task of transpiler writing as a foil for elaborating some of the fundamental distinctions of the language

The more programming languages I know, the more I understand that they all suck. Some suck less, though.

Macrobrew gets a deref mention. It's been a good week.

On a serious note, the community has been very welcoming to me and I'm grateful for that.

I couldn't imagine being featured in a language's official newsletter.

Another reason to learn clojure :) twitter.com/ClojureDeref/statu

1/5 is by far the best language I have ever worked with, and I have worked with many over the past decade. 🧵

Wrote a little HTML highlighter using , rewrite-clj and .

Note the precise highlighting of var defs and locals.
