Yes networking is def not a core competency. Strange though, the senior people are super technical (I recall the stories of Iwata writing compression algos in Pokemon) Maybe the DNA of the company is just too focused on games specifically

Oof that XR bug was a rough one to run into. If you're a small startup trying to move fast with CLJS, these kinds of impedance mismatches between GCC/CLJS/browser versions can be both hard to track down and a time killer to f

If people liked this, this is actually the third in a series. Schubert wrote them in quick succession (as he knew his death was near) and some internal references within the series. D958 D959 D960 are the numbers to look up. Mitsuko Uchida

Just chiming in to say I agree with ear-training! I've played/learned piano for ~25 years and I've decided that not taking the time to actually sit down and level up my ear training has held me back quite a bit in some ways:

I'm confused, does this have anything to do with the Clojure Kafka client also called Jackdaw by FundingCircle?

I recently had to help my mother with some tech support. One of the things I needed to do was turn off the device - I had to actually Google how to turn off an iPhone X. This is after me owning 3 generations of iPhone (3S-4S) and an iPad AN

I'm in two minds here - a set of tools/patterns exist for a reason so this is a useful write-up for the difficulties involved with doing modals. On the other hand, it is always a warning indicator when the browser/hardware is

This is a good article. One gotcha I ran into using fnil is that you don't get variable-arity functions for free from it in Clojure (YMMV in cljs). This caused an issue when I was using (fnil + 0 0) in a reduce function - as it would b

This is a sound article - Clojure's laziness is often a source of common gotchas for new users of the language. It's often not clear what is lazy and what isn't - concat is lazy for instance. It isn't externally obvious
