Call me crazy, but I sort of love #Clojure stacktraces. They are so incredibly useful for debugging. #refactoring

The Beauty of #Clojure as a #DataOriented language really shone for me yesterday when I was data crawling -- nay, slogging -- through a big #PHP multi-type nested blob.

One of the big downsides to being a hosted language like #Clojure is that, regardless of how awesomely stable the ideology with the language itself, you can't avoid problems if your host decides to make breaking changes. I am still doing damage control on the painful #Java 9+ #CoreChanges, where they decided it was time to shrink Java's core library and various dependent packages broke.

I am at a loss in my #clojure app. I've loaded a dependency which has cljc code and works fine in other apps of mine. But now when I load it in cljs, it is all nil. Kondo reads it and knows, eg, function signatures for it, but any effort to use it from the repl is just a lot of nil. I have restarted the repl multiple times, but no dice. "type" on any of it, even the NS declaration, is "nil". But Kondo knows it fine. What!?

Listening to a webdev podcast I enjoy, whenever the show runners bring up Typescript (all the time), I mentally substitute #Clojure specs. #gradualtyping

Finally used fnil in #Clojure: to extend a function to support nil case without NPE-ing you! My use: a function that needs to handle strings, collections, or nil, and doesn't know which it will get.

I oversaw the creation of a #PHP #CRUD app for room #scheduling five years ago. It has been good, and has been in heavy use since then -- but suddenly has some issues, probably from #SQL logic -- and I desperately want a #REPL a la #Clojure.

The data coming through the pipeline on one view was missing a crucial piece. It was sweet to be able to add it to the back-end function that is gathering the data, evaluate the form, and boom! It was there for my front-end view as soon as I used my usual endpoint. #Clojure #ClojureScript #FullStack #repl

Every time I have to resort to using a string selector in #clojure #garden #CSS, I feel dirty.

I have my #clojure #timbre #logging to both a file and database. It appears to just STOP after a few minutes of operation -- but we have no idea why. Restarting fixes it for a few minutes. WHY?

I've been looking for certain #clojure swag. I finally found some! https://www.teepublic.com/mask/8637677-clojure-programming-language #FaceMask #ClojureMerchandise
