Probably a good idea, but thanks anyway for introducing me to another cool feature of Clojure!

From the article: (defn ping [] (-> (http/get "http://localhost:5123" :as :string) :content)) (defn multi-ping [] (->> (repeatedly 16 #(ping)) (apply str))) Can anyone tell me what --

Maybe you could provide the data as a JSON feed? Then others can do their thing without hurting the HN servers. I imagine the bandwidth to serve them would be pretty small (or maybe I underestimate the hunger for HN JSON feeds :p) I'm sure

I'm not sure I get this. He's saying that to do stuff people need to have motivation, ability and a trigger (which could presumably be just them thinking "hey, maybe I should do that"). Is that new? At all? Is there anything else to this "B

I think that was the point of the story. Did I miss something?

Thanks! That wallet looks like just what I've been looking for. eBay would appear to be the place to get them. Cheaper and, more importantly for me, international shipping.

You clearly don't understand the advanced kind of maths I'm doing there ;)

Writing code that way I can understand. But it's kind of useful to be able to read other peoples code and know what it does. Also, "1 + 2 * 3" is quite obviously 6 and not 9 in languages with operator precedence, I really don't think you ne

I don't understand all these "why we're not using NoSQL" posts. Why is it interesting that someone choose the default choice? Why would they use a NoSQL database of some sort for a major project unless they actually had a need for it? I'm h

I'm not sure I do trust you to gauge things correctly when your explanation for his refusal is "he wants to be poor".

I'm sure you didn't mean it that way but that's not exactly the most sensitive way to handle things. I really wouldn't be drawing too many conclusions about your friend from his reaction to that. I'm pretty sure I'd never take money from so

Your friend probably doesn't want to be $5000 in debt to the kind of guy who whips out $5000 at lunch. You most probably already make him feel pretty crappy about himself as it is.
