Heard from someone today that a #clojure user group I ran in Cape Town years ago helped them pick Clojure for their career and business, and they are now successful and happy because of it. Proud!

Are you a Clojure developer if you are not familiar with @borkdude stones?
Just in case you missed this at @clojuredconf,

TIL predicate dispatch. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Predicate_dispatch learned thanks to "smart #Clojure people"® a la https://clojureverse.org/t/dispacio-predicate-dispatch-for-clojure-script/8956 . One of those things I never knew I never knew I never knew. Suppose you want to dispatch based on some 3rd-party or other dynamic value.
But syntax doesn't have to be hard. Enter #Clojure #ClojureScript, part of the "syntaxless" tradition where you can learn syntax and then it gets out of the way, even allowing you to compile down to those others (and many more)

CSS is Hard!
Whole Programming is Hard !!
Yes, everything will be hard at first, but it will become easy once you start learning it and put your time and effor…

Sometimes the internet really comes through. I am just thrilled by the #clojure response to my call for resources about the dynamic vs static types debate, its intelligence and lack of toxic criticizing or dismissing.

A reminder that #Clojure has very fast computing libraries, which I used in building very fast #DeepLearning library. What good is it if you don't know how to use that? Fear not, I wrote 2 books, (2nd editions on the way). Buy a book and help me fund this

TIL that C# and the CLR in general actually can't do Tail Call Optimization. Does anyone know if this is the same reason that the JVM can't do it, so we have manual work-arounds is #clojure via (recur)? https://stackoverflow.com/questions/491376/why-doesnt-net-c-optimize-for-tail-call-recursion

Thoughts from Alex Miller (Cognitect, @puredanger) #Clojure vs the costs of static typing https://clojureverse.org/t/dynamic-types-where-is-the-discussion/8968/17
Big agree on this. Dragan's work has been brilliant, and his books (and online tutorials) are excellent. If you want some giggles, look up his benchmark-wars with DeepLearning4J

Is #Clojure slow-ish? Compared to Java? No. Compared to C++ and #Python and #TensorFlow and #PyTorch. Still NO! Check out https://github.com/uncomplicate and https://dragan.rocks. Is it hard to learn to harness that performance? Not at all! …

I was wondering where the actual discussion of #Clojure static vs dynamic typing was at. The answers to my inquiry have sparked joy. https://clojureverse.org/t/dynamic-types-where-is-the-discussion/8968
