There are times in #emacs when bisection gets relievingly lucky. Such it was when I found out that my 6m old version of Marginalia was causing emacs to freeze on displaying the variable list. Though it had caused a week of pain, once I got down to init bisection it only took half an hour. #CuttingEdgePains

The Alternative Big O notation:
O(1) = O(yeah)
O(log n) = O(nice)
O(n) = O(k)
O(n²) = O(my)
O(2ⁿ) = O(no)
O(n!) = O(mg!)
O(n!*n) = O(rly?)
The trouble with this Planck that has been my main keyboard for a few months is that I always fat-finger keys. Which is weird, because my finger are not fat and the keys are not small. I think it's probably due to the Dvorak, perhaps combined with the ortholinear. All I want for Christmas is 99% accuracy at speed on this keyboard...
In a better society honesty would matter more.

I wished for a long time Windows was more like Linux. With Windows 11, my dream is finally becoming true: I cannot get HDMI sound to work on Windows 11 to save my life.

Learning #Clojure? My book recs in order!
1. Getting Clojure
2. Elements of Clojure (read even if ya don't Clojure)
3. Clojure, The Essential Reference https://rb.gy/oblheo
The 3rd reco is NEW. The detail, approach and sheer knowledge dropped is heroic🤯🙇♂️🙏 Thanks @reborg
Time for some reading...

@quoll it's easy to miss :) see https://clojure.org/guides/comparators for like 100x more info than you want or need on comparators

TIL that clojure.lang.AFunction implements java.util.Comparator. That's every function in Clojure. I used to reify to create comparators, and now I feel like an idiot

Ah, the joys of working with pure data!
I was trying to do a complicated, customized, rendering system to Chlorine. It was SLOW as HELL.
Then, I thought: why can't I combine lots of hiccup structures in a single one?
Surprise: code now runs in 20% of the original time!
Given a phone number, finding the carrier or land-line status of that number should be free info, right? Why are there so many free-just-kidding rackets out there to get you this info? Anyone know a clean way to get ground-truth on phone-number carrier info?
A detailed and richly sourced look at #lisp and then #clojure in particular, with the task of transpiler writing as a foil for elaborating some of the fundamental distinctions of the language

Emacs, Clomacs and Babashka is just cheating… Using Clojure and all its goodies in emacs instead of elisp. Converting between format (json/yaml/edn/transit, html/hiccup) is just trivial xD.

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

"One little known fact that I found about using Clojure, is that it is an excellent language for implementing published algorithms in academic papers."

Orgs supporting NFTs and crypto: Twitter, Discord and Adobe (Big Tech, centralised)
Projects opposing it: Mastodon, Zulip and Kritta (open source, decentralised)
If you think crypto and NFTs will democratise the internet, wonder why Big Tech likes it and decentralised OS doesn't
Clojurians Zulip aggregates slack, clojureverse, reddit, and stack overflow Clojure items, and puts them all in a readable email for me so I don't need to "check" those sights but can read and visit directly what is interesting. Gotta say, this is a huge advantage to my workflow!
