It's also possible to use Clojure on Android: http://riddell.us/ClojureAndAndroidWithEmacsOnUbuntu.html ... although the impression I get from the stuff I've been reading is that there's a 3-4 second delay when starting up an app written

I don't have an answer to the question, but thought perhaps this "Ask Reddit" discussion about "If you designed a Porn site would you put it on your resume?" might be useful: http://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/844pj/if_you_de...

A friend and I are working through Project Euler as part of our effort to learn Clojure. My code is littered with the pattern of (map #(list % (f %)) coll) all over the place... Very glad that I read this article (and the comments), and I

Agreed, especially the point about alternate justifications. Using a non-centered justification would make it easier to see at a glance which fonts are monospace, which would help a lot for, say, exploring programming fonts (my primary use

He's one of my blogging heroes as well. He inspired me to get out of my C/C++/Java comfort zone and embark on a strange and mind-expanding journey through Ruby, Haskell, Scala, culminating in Clojure. When I got to Clojure, I immediately

As technomancy said, there's no way to tell what the issue was without more info, but was the Mac behind a proxy, by any chance? That was the issue I ran into when I first tried to use ELPA. Solved by setting url-proxy-services in Emacs:

I've been using/learning Emacs for a while now, which I think has made me more sensitive to certain text formatting errors. Now, when I help my spouse proof-read her academic papers, I get really hung up on things like extra/missing spaces
