@pymander @howard@emacs.ch I use CLJC on several projects (and rely on its use in some libraries) so that CLJ and CLJS use literally the same code
@mindaslab I also find value in the #telegram one, for those who are using that: https://t.me/clojure_en

Working on free software is much more personally gratifying for me than working on proprietary software because the work will potentially benefit everyone as it may be shared freely. - Adrien Béraud. Read more in our #WorkingTogether series: https://u.fsf.org/409
@patrixl What do I do about the secrets that Github uses to set things up?
@patrixl that just might be... awesome! Thanks!

@worldsendless although this isn't a 1:1 equivalent, have you tried https://github.com/nektos/act ?
oi. Performing bisection while slowly waiting for the remote tests to execute because I'm debugging an error that isn't happening locally... for the love of all things REPL, I'm sorry...
I just found out about #SafeTwitch, soothing the annoyance of endless Twitch popups, interruptions, and notification-ads. https://codeberg.org/dragongoose/safetwitch I mean, I want to support the people I follow, but #Twitch is so heavy handed at it. Maybe I should just do a Patreon. All the proprietary services, making you suffer or use money to use them. #Commercialism at work.
@gnomon I love that film! no Linguistics, either
The glory of #lisp like #clojure is supposed to be the smooth #REPL experience. I have gone back to the stoneage because github actions are receiving an error that I cannot reproduce locally, so I keep making a change, pushing to see if that effects the github test error, and then trying again. Like I'm back in the stone age.
@olav@emacs.ch I started with Paredit, then understood the emacs version to be deprecated and went to SmartParens for a few years, and recently switched to the FSF #guix preferred #Puni. I always think of this great video and the magic of the weird "transpose" command https://emacsrocks.com/e14.html
Today I learned from a repo readme... caveat emptor https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caveat_emptor #til #noWarranty
Derived from https://xkcd.com/303/ to express my own experience. I don't often spend time compiling in my work as a webdev, but TDD and the regression tests take some serious time.
@howard@emacs.ch I get it. In practice, I do need to restart sometimes when I am switching work locations, and also when I'm hacking in my #emacs init file...
Any kind of content creator (and I am not a serious one) needs to sometimes cause the site caches to update for the image previews. I've done it for Twitter back before it got hijaXed; it was pretty simple for #Telegram, though.

#emacs is really really good at "undo". Undo localized to an area, visual undotree for when that goes bad; options for saving undo between sessions (which I don't use because I don't know what a session is... #NeverExit)
