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

Not me. I'm not tired of preventing COVID. I'm tired of folks trying to convince everyone that the COVID pandemic is over when it clearly isn't.

Clojure's basic interop syntax (single dot) is very nice. I think I'm going to use it more. I like how simple it is.
user=> (. "hi" indexOf "i")
1
user=> (. java.time.Instant now)

A great article on Industry Design patters in #Clojure https://blog.janetacarr.com/software-design-patterns-in-clojure
Does anyone know of a Docker app that can RECEIVE emails, which I could use for an example of how it can be done?
TIL about this ancient, generally disliked thing "like Unix, but moreso" Plan 9. http://fqa.9front.org/fqa0.html

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... 🤡
Asia Clojurians: RTs appreciated! https://www.meetup.com/clojure-tokyo/events/287668110/

Preparing to address some colleagues. What are your top selling points TO NON-TECHY users about why #Zulip instead of Slack?

I know I've said it before, but Clojure is the best tool that I've found for thinking about software design.
Even if the final project is not written in Clojure, I always like to prototype in Clojure.

Good article on how to rid yourself from GNOME's ceaseless, napoleonic usurpation of your shortcut keys.
Every time I upgrade Ubuntu there's another handful of obscure keys interfering with Emacs'.

Today, during a Clojure workshop I lead, a participant asked me a question I couldn't answer.
I posted the question on Clojurians Slack and after two minutes I got a reply with an answer for my student.
Thank you my dear Clojure community rocks😍.

@souldessin nice explanation :) Reminds me of stories I have heard of hold-overs from original C/Assembly who try to save memory with shorter variable names. In fact, I still see lots of historical examples of variable-name-truncation in timeless things like Emacs
@souldessin why compress, though? It only hurts later reading/maintenance, for a few bytes of savings that might not be worth the time it takes to do that rewrite.
In a couple of weeks I'll be making a case to my non-programmer colleagues for why Zulip instead of familiar, everyone-is-doing-it Slack. And those are the points they feel for Slack. This is for inter-office comms. What points would you make for Zulip?
