I plan events through #emacs orgmode agenda. For simple note-less recurring events I do a <2022-09-12 9:00 Mon +1w> to get it weekly, or daily, etc. For more granularity I use `org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift` (C-c C-x c). I make then for a month or year in advance and just use `COMMENT` on the upcoming section, until I need to open it.

I use Google Scholar to get the bibtex for an article along with its pdf. Is there any other comparable tool, or does Google have the corner on this service?

Currently engaged in a 59+-line Slack thread re: a 2-expression bash conditional that tests environment variables and includes calls to git piping to grep and cross-platform behavior differences. Combined developer experience years is likely 30+.
Just use #babashka.

@trinsec #Clojure, which has two syntax for lambdas. The shortest is `#(fun-call % %2)`, which is what the post warns against. More readable is `(fn liitle-known-optional-name [nice-arg-name] stuff-done)`. As she points out, using that little-known-optional-name is really helpful in stack trace debugging. Plus, it's great for readability.
🤯 Genius is about making things simple.

The entire implementation of ClojureScript postwalk and prewalk. Mind blown.

Two groups of programmers stand out and both are gravely mistaken.
The is no fast language on its own. Also, there is no practical system that is bad, slow, hard to maintain purely because it is written in a particular language. #programming #Java #Clojure #JavaScript

"If the BDD-tests we've got from our 3-amigos-sessions is not sufficient for you, you can still write additional tests."
Amazing how much can be wrong in a single sentence.
And: Hell yes, sure I'll do.
I am excited for this #DataScience course in #Clojure, coming soon! https://scicloj.github.io/docs/community/groups/ds4clj/

We cannot write a program that generates randomness, because as soon as we've done so it can be used to predict that randomness. We can extropolate (within limits) randomness, mix it, & adjust its probability distribution. But randomness itself must be sourced as input!
There's dedicated circuits for this, & often we can extract randomness from other inputs as sideeffect of the digitization process.
Maybe randomness is just what we don't understand, or maybe its some sort of nonsentient deity.
I use follow-mode (built-in to #emacs) to split reading buffers across modern wide screens to use all the real estate. The mode keeps the panes in sync with each other. http://images.toryanderson.com/follow-mode.gif
#Clojure teaches a great many principles of code quality and manageable system design; half the boot "Pragmatic Programmer" is already idiomatic. I love to use Clojure to learn other things. With shock I realize that WordPress is not this way; looks like it will teach bad habits of system design and code usage. #WordPress has many qualities, but "learning to do things the right way" is not one of them.
There once was a conversation an a thread on Twitter, a month or two ago. We talked about stuff that has been on my mind, but now it is missing. How can I find it?

It’s official: I’ll be giving a lightning talk about golfing #Clojure at @ClojureDays in Amsterdam in October. See you there!
