Doesn't even have a Ph.D. Some parts of me. Theorizing the Web, an experience. April 29, 2014. May 1, 2014. Last week, I attended Theorizing the Web. The first thing you need to know is that TtW. Is not a technology conference. Before I characterize it positively though, it’s worth considering the conference’s own statement. While there were a few technologists in attendance. Before I enumerate some of my highlights of TtW, I want to offer some context of my own, a thread that mostly winds around:. As a ...

Doesn't even have a Ph.D. Some parts of me. Results of the 2012 State of Clojure survey. August 6, 2012. August 8, 2012. A few weeks ago, I opened the 2012 State of Clojure survey. A FAQ among language and library implementers has always been, “Which version of the JVM should I target? 8221; I can’t say why I didn’t include a question relevant to that topic from the beginning, but it was included in this one and the answers were surprising, at least to me. A similar question was included ...As Clojure is...

I solicited the Clojure community to participate in a short survey to determine a few things in particular:. Which language/community have Clojure programmers “come from”, or are primarily using now, if not Clojure? In which domain(s) is Clojure being used? To what extent is Clojure being used commercially? The survey accumulated 487 responses. With that out of ...

http://stevendick.github.io/blog/2012/04/30/dive-into-clojure
It's all About Tech. No, not a review of a Clojure book you’ve never heard of: Dive into Clojure, but more a play on words as I spent quite a bit of time reading Clojure Programming. Not to be confused with Programming Clojure. While on a diving holiday in Egypt’s Red Sea. Guys in managing your books online. I was annoyed that the epud version wasn’t available until the book was finished (I regularly use the early access feature to technical books). Clojure had 2 points that drew me to it: it’s a L...

Tips for Clojure Beginners. May 08, 2014. 1 Learn the essentials with Clojure Koans. Teaches you the basics of the language by providing a series of tests for you to turn green. The topics and tests are chosen well, and the project’s vibe is pleasant (“calling a function is like giving it a hug with parentheses”). Open a koan. Make it pass. Meditate. Enjoy enlightenment. 2 Move on to 4Clojure problems. Is a great way to become familiar with Clojure’s many built-in functions. 3 Read a book or two. When wr...

Doesn't even have a Ph.D. Some parts of me. A Clojure “Scholarship”: Let’s send Raynes to the Conj! September 10, 2010. September 18, 2011. If you’re a Clojure (or other FP language) programmer, you might know Anthony Grimes already. Notable projects of his. Include sexpbot, irclj, and the guts behind try-clojure.org. He goes by IORayne on twitter. And Raynes in #clojure on freenode irc, where he’s been a positive, helpful presence. Remarkably, population 184! All that’s left to do is raise enough money ...
