#AdventOfCode teaches you the rarely used parts of your language. I grep'd our ~100kloc #clojure code base and noticed that not a single time we use `reductions`. `frequencies` we use 4 times. When doing #AdventOfCode those functions are frequently used!
What began as issues with the routing became other blinding issues with our #logging apparently ceasing -- both to file and to database -- for unknown reason after just a few minutes. #TroubleshootingCascade
Gotta say, this is pretty cool. Finally some nice #json viewing in #emacs! https://github.com/iwahbe/jsonian
abruptly my three-monitor setup, which has been working for years, stopped because it couldn't find my 1600x900 mode. An hour later it is good again. #GhostsInTheMachine
I have never viewed epub before os thought I would try it. Because of dependencies and non-github repos, the #emacs #straight.el install had a few more steps. https://orys.us/uw

#introduction
Hi there! My name is Scott Starkey, and I'm a Clojure back-end developer for CataBoom, a gamification marketing company. In my spare time, I'm also a part-time professional magician and a probably psychic entertainer.
Other interests include the international language Esperanto, board games (design and playing). I'm an illustrator / cartoonist for my game design projects.

Scittle: execute Clojure(Script) directly from browser script tags via SCI!
v0.4.11 released: you can now use re-frame from scittle!
You can play around with re-frame here:
I came across blog (RSS) to Mastodon in a topic recently, and am now seriously considering it, with a Karl Volt-style "built to last" mentality -- read Mastodon via #RSS-feeds, post to #Mastodon via my #blogs. Any killer suggestions? @publicvoit #BuiltToLast

Had the honour to be guest on the first episode of "Show me your REPL" with @niquola !
RT @tonyaldon
Sometimes you want the power of text, sometimes you want the power of data.
In org-mode buffer there is no trade-off, we have both!
Indeed the content of an org-mode buffers is not only TEXT...
IT IS ALSO DATA.
AND THIS IS #emacs

I can't help but notice many toots from helpful newbies encouraging you to support the Mastodon Patreon.
It's fine to do that but understand it goes to just two big instances and the official Mastodon dev team.
It does NOT trickle down to YOUR instance. If you want to support your server, donate to it directly. Nearly all the costs of the explosive growth of the past few weeks is borne by local instances.
Mastodon is decentralized. There is no Mastodon Inc. This is not Twitter.

"Elon Musk wants every Twitter employee sending weekly updates about their work via email now"
Elmo's escalating the level of crazy. Or there must be very few people left at Twitter if the CEO can afford to waste time on such trivial and meaningless bullshit.
OTOH, this would be a great use-case for malicious compliance ✌️

It's past 1994, Spotify. Who has no "history" view, to find that 1 of 3 *not most recent* podcast episodes I listened to, which I want to share from this morning?
