For the most part I’m not sure it matters. What specific problems have you had as a result of fragmentation in clojure project build tools? I don’t much care what the name of the command is: if running it produces an artifact I can depend o

That’s an exaggeration. You’re not entirely wrong, though. First, it is not called deps.edn, it is called tools.deps. Second, it is without a doubt, 100% untrue that projects that Cognitect employees work on, exclusively use tools.deps. Cog

Fantastic article. Before you make a comment about the diamond industry, read the whole thing. I’ve had the same view, but this article moved me. Also, the audio version is wonderfully read. Recommended.

The comparison to doctors is an interesting one, but also a very poor one. Doctors run a cartel in the traditional economic sense. The AMA pushed to restrict the number of residency slots, and what’s more is that Medicare incentivizes teach

I can't play the teacher's vocal pitch. It errors out in both Chrome and Safari. Love the idea, though.

I take your point, but can we avoid this analogy please? Let’s talk about actual code if we’re going to talk about the best tool for a job that requires it. It reminds me of something early in my career that irked me like few work-related t

Eh, I have to point out that AWS has many services that receive such scant updates that they are effectively dropped products. There are a lot of things that AWS produces which never receive adequate polish or timely updates. I’ve been in b

Cheers to this. When I took it I prepared for weeks. I fasted. I kept a journal during the experience. I had a plan. It wasn't just to "see stuff". I also always spaced experiences out 6 months, and I actually never took more

I do almost all of my work in Clojure and have for nearly 7 years. I don’t actually miss a traditional debugger much. I’ve occasionally tried one out, but an interactive REPL and immutable data means printlns with the occasional conditional

If someone winds up in the ER for a bad trip, a benzodiazepine is often used. That’s not legal to obtain without a prescription, but well, neither are mushrooms.

A friend of mine kept an escape hatch dose of Valium in order to stop the action of things became too intense. I don’t believe the safety net was ever employed, and perhaps simply having the option helped keep some of those feelings at bay.

>the meaninglessness of “cool” It’s kind of hard to convey just how much this particular aspect of LSD changed my outlook. I too was quite young at the time I tried it. It made me rethink my media diet, which at 15 was filled with MTV an

Hard to tell if you’re joking. If you do actually believe this, I assume you also believe that e-commerce broke everything?

There was an effort to do something like what you’re describing some years back. I think I heard about a volunteer effort to build something like this around the time of gamergate.

Total difference in cost? ~1500$. That seems a ridiculous difference for modest hardware improvement and the requisite gaggle of adapters. I’m happy with the machine, but it’s probably 500$ more than what I would have been comfortable payin

I bought one. If they hadn’t produced this I would have walked on Apple hardware. The only thing that is jaw dropping to me: the price tag. I’m surprised to not see people talking about it in the comments. 3900 US without Apple care? Holy g

I’m in one right now. We manage each other I guess. It works well. We recently decided to add a lightweight annual career goal type check in. We have a sort of informal lead that is recognized politically as the person you’d go to if you ne

I note that IDA Pro and LLDB are mentioned. How much penetration does NSA’s Ghidra have at this point, and is it expected to grow over time? I used IDA briefly in a past life and was really impressed with Ghidra, especially as an “open” off

As someone who has only recently gotten into producing an app for iOS, I was immediately struck by the lack and quality of the docs. It’s nice to hear that I’m not alone. The lack of documentation led me to feeling like I was just somehow p
