As someone who did a code review for a colleague and left over 100 comments... I would say that leaving those comments is handy as it's a single place I can check to see what comments I left and the state of the fix, or if it's no

In an ideal world, yes. In practice this almost never happens. Architecture evolves as the code is written. I don't think this is a good way to do things, but it's mostly what happens IME.

Also check that person isn't null, probably. person?.firstName?.trim(); What (s)he means though is in Java if firstName is there then it will be a string. In Clojure firstName might be anything, a string, a number or even an entire oth

Has anyone done both elm and clojure script for Web work? Which did you prefer, which had the best tooling etc? I need to learn Web, as mucj as I don't want to, and love clojure and fp. Also figwheel looks awesome, but how hard is it t

In the example we wanted to be able to call (1 + 2) and have it evaluate to 3. (defn swap [x] (list (second x) (first x) (last x))) (swap (1 + 2)) =>Exception! 1 isn't a function. Clojure tried to evaluate it&#x

It was an admittedly simple example that was to show how easy it is in Clojure to treat code as data and data as code. The main point of macros is when you use a regular function in Clojure you have applicative order evaluation. Macros do n

The above posters point on Homoiconicity is a big one, here is a quick (and silly) example for anyone unfamiliar with the term. Take the following clojure: (+ 1 2) => 3 Here the ( ) delimits, a list, and as the blog post sa

I think if all you are doing is reading files line by line, reading a database dataset etc, then your choice of language is probably irrelevant. Choose whatever you prefer typing. But here's CLojres read a file line by line and print i

This is fairly common. I've seen the tech tests we receive from potential candidates and they are for the most part appaling. Our technical test is incredibly simple as well and they can do it at home in their own time. Imagine somethi

SICP is such a fantastic book. I've been working through it using Clojure rather than Scheme and loving it, I've been a developer for around 15 years and I'm still learning stuff from this wonderful book. I'd recommend i

Nuget conflicts is still a big issue IMO. One of the major pains of my life as a .NET dev who does .NET core right now is Nuget and binding redirects!

It's going through small periods of being inaccesible for me.

That's been my opinion for a while too. Some of the .NET core stuff is pretty neat for basic demos to show off the tech. But for actual enterprise stuff I've so far found it really frustrating to work with.
