It seems that unit testing and private functions are opposed by convention in #clojure Cider and presumably other places -- a fact that can make TDD difficult since, hey -- I need to test that each line of the data spec is handled properly, but those shouldn't be exposed to library users. Solution settled on making a quasi-private namespace where we hide things that drive the main api functions -- technically still public, but documented for clients.

Recently I've been affected by mindful chats w/ @otfrom @kloimhardt @reborg @kiraemclean @TeodorHeggelund @lambduhh @metasoarous @ezmiller about #Clojure community & knowledge building. Wholesome people are putting their thoughts into making things friendly. It makes me hopeful.

Y'all need to listen to this.
SO serves about 2 billion page views a month and 6k RPS
they don't use what the cool kids use. No micro services, no kubernetes.
Lot of fun to listen to. https://twitter.com/alexcwatt/status/1544876135711916035

Whoa! Just learned about Asymptote for vector graphic generation. It can produce SVG and is apparently great for web. This could be very useful! https://asymptote.sourceforge.io/index.html

I have just reached the point at which I am so consistently grumpy about how complex it is to build and deploy secure, high-quality software that it is interfering w/ my ability to build and deploy said software.
We do soft deletes in PostGres with auto-generated views that permanently encode "undeleted" vs the raw table. But article's point of referential integrity is a big one.
Of course the first thing that came to mind on this is xtdb @xtdb_com bitemporal database, where built in soft-deletes are part of bitemporality (first class). It is mentioned exactly once in the HS comments so far.

A discussion about 'soft deletion' is currently #1 on HN! On reflection, "making soft deletes a first-class concept" feels like a useful way to frame 'bitemporality' for the uninitiated 💡
I'm looking forward to…

Does anyone use Microsoft Teams because they actually think it's the best communication platform, or is it just because your company policy forces you to?

On the JVM we are used to strings as collections of chars. Not so in JS. But you can still traverse them with codepoints!

Whoa! TIL that it's actually okay to have a slash before your query strings, and that some servers require it!
