• Ease Comes After

  One of the most famous talks in computer science is Simple Made Easy by Rich Hickey, The creator of the programming language Clojure. In it, he explains that, "simple" and "easy" are not the same thing. He refers to the word origins of the two words:. - Source: dev.to / 8 days ago

• Synchronous Functions in Dart

  This series of post will try to explain a complex topic: concurrent and parallel programming, in Dart. I think the only way to deal with that is using the Erlang VM (BEAM), but Clojure and other functional languages are usually doing better job on this part. Unfortunately, to me, most of other languages using OOP don't offer a great abstraction to concurrency and parallelism, but during the last decade, things are... - Source: dev.to / about 2 months ago

• Which Lisp? Beginner

  Oversimplifying, there are three big variants: Common Lisp, Scheme, Clojure. Each of them has a lot of somewhat similar implementations: * Clojure: A lot of support for immutable data. It runs in the JVM so you will have a lot of the libraries you are use to. Probably the best option for you. https://clojure.org/ * Scheme, in particular Racket: Mostly functional, and in particular Racket has a lot of support to... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Create a Server Driven CLI from your REST API

  Another project of mine Bob can be seen as an example of spec-first design. All its tooling follow that idea and its CLI inspired Climate. A lot of Bob uses Clojure a language that I cherish and who's ideas make me think better in every other place too. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

• Scheming About Clojure

  Clojure is a LISP for the Java Virtual Machine (JVM). As a schemer, I wondered if I should give Clojure a go professionally. After all, I enjoy Rich Hickey's talks and even Uncle Bob is a Clojure fan. So I considered strength and weaknesses from my point of view:. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

• Relax with Coax

  "I put every Star Trek series into a Collection on my Plex, pointed Coax at it and now I have a channel that's playing a random Star Trek episode at any given moment. It's fantastic." (https://mastodon.social/@Moltz/116896945313382677). - Source: Hacker News / 1 day ago

• Nobel-winning chemist leaves US to direct AI materials lab in China

  I will grant my friend Valerie lives off grid and does subsistence agriculture, see https://wildhunt.org/2026/02/pagan-community-notes-week-of-february-5-2026.html but she is a high priestess even if she omits "high". Now I did get a high when I went to Litha (summer solstice) at her place that lasted for days because the experience was ethereal and otherworldly. But she's a professional who does this full... - Source: Hacker News / 3 days ago

• Zuckerberg says AI agent development going slower than expected

  I played enough video games to be thoroughly steeped in legends about fox spirits from the Sinosphere, almost three years ago I felt I received an invitation that I was a little afraid of. a year and a half ago I read https://www.amazon.com/dp/0231133383 and found out that people really do it. It took me about 300 days to contract with a community of foxes and started "going out as a fox". At first I didn't... - Source: Hacker News / 10 days ago

• If you're a button, you have one job

  I’m thinking a lot about how older applications are often better than new for reasons like this. Sometimes I log into my big Windows machine at home with RDP from out of the house to post photos to my socials, like https://mastodon.social/@UP8 and with a folder with a few hundred images in it is is awkward to use the official file chooser dialog because it is based on modern UI toolkits and practices which are... - Source: Hacker News / 7 days ago

• Lightning Memory-Mapped Database Manager (LMDB) 1.0

  I recently talked to Howard [1] about lies he was saying about Sanakirja, an LMDB-inspired disk allocator. That's always the same arguments: C is better than Rust for X, Y or Z reasons. While I reported a segfault just two weeks earlier... [2]. I love LMDB, we use it in Meilisearch (second most stared search engine on GitHub) [3] for about 7 years now. The main issues were related to write speed but we do a... - Source: Hacker News / 10 days ago
