yet another nixos article that talks about its downsides (like the custom programming language) but never mentions guix. do they just not know it's an option?
@freemo What a great hobby/passtime/passion! Knowing nothing about SCUBA, is it pretty standard to have exposed arms/legs? Seems like you might face temperature/abrasion discomfort? (disclaimer: I like to stay covered even on regular days in open air)
Magic numbers that automatically prompt a google copyright takedown. This feels like the sort of non-sense that might come from the same kind of neural networks that might think a cloud is a bus, but they are right often enough that we use them anyway. https://www.androidpolice.com/numbers-violate-google-drives-terms-of-service/
Im working through this book right now , enjoying it. "Tell me you're a Clojure programmer without saying you're a Clojure programmer" is a great approach for a book , it turns out

Have you noticed that Twitter have updated their algorithm a while ago to give lower relevance to tweets containing external links? I guess they really want people to never leave their platform.

Thank you @cognitect & @nubank for backing up the work we do at Lambda Island via Open Collective, we heartily appreciate it! 🎉 🙌😊

I'm blown away by this.
It's one of those things that's blatantly obvious only AFTER you know it. https://twitter.com/NateSilver538/status/1485754314551349257

In this post, @reborg is going to take us through an initial overview the new Clojure 1.11 iteration function including a few practical examples. Enjoy! https://www.juxt.pro/blog/new-clojure-iteration

This blog post features a clojure notebook solution in 62 lines of code. The code also happens to run with #babashka which allows you to write self-documenting script notebooks :)

Hey every conference everywhere: Every time needs a timezone on it.
I don't wanna look up "where" your conference is, there is no "where" anymore.
Please put the timezone on every time listing.
"9:00" is about as meaningful as "to the left"

But in Clojure, state is represented by immutable values. No part of the program can manipulate values. The problem encapsulation solves simply doesn't exist.
The code needs less indirection, fewer permissions, and less incidental complexity. It's almost magically simpler.
A worthwhile thread with some good advice. I particularly like the bits about experience and neuroplasticity . https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1484314926269140993.html

#Clojure . What other languages have destructuring, out of curiosity?

RT @lambdaisland
Destructuring is very powerful, but don't overdo it. Mixing styles and destructuring multiple levels at once will make your code hard to read.
What are your tips for keeping your Clojure code easy to follow?

Just had my #Clojure team meeting and we discussed routing, something I didn't learn until I actually did Clojure Fullstack. Front end routing, with interceptors, and back end routing with middleware.
RT @pavel_klavik
@maximehugodupre Just learn #Clojure with https://orgpad.com/s/clojure-tutorial. Now you can target Java, JS (both browser and NodeJS), and many other places (C#, Python, ...). The language is awesome and 10x more powerful than anything else.
