I'm dissapointed. I thought I would find a comment about moot on this post or at least a reference to this image ("trolling is a art"): http://i.imgur.com/iwmk2vn.jpg

I did the transition from Java to Groovy (because of Grails) which helped me to become familiar with closures and a more functional style of programming, which eventually got me interested in Clojure. I still think Groovy is valuable as a &

Exactly this! ... I started learning Clojure but I was too green to build something complex, so my problem was "Where do I get problems to solve with it?" and somehow I stumbled with Project Euler, where many others implement solu

I think Clojure has a clear advantage here: newcomers always complain about the parens and after an initial time frame we all get it and it becomes a non-issue and as you progress, there is no baroque design, it just composes over itself.

I think it's easy to feel overwhelmed but you probably can scale up with Python with little effort with PyPy (time ago you could do that with Psyco) or change your processing to something based on Twisted.

I changed to Liferea too and it surprised me how little took me to get used to it. Also, on Ubuntu 12.04 you get the unread posts count in the launcher (61 items in this screenshot): http://imgur.com/YHDWrIC Liferea has few

Same here. Using 12.04 currently, but with the recent release of Debian Wheezy I'm considering using it for my daily work and getting more involved with Debian as a whole.

We use DokuWiki ( https://www.dokuwiki.org ) and it's great, but as any tool, you have to be disciplined and keep the contents up to date, otherwise "wikis are where documentation goes to die." Most comments tend to cover only code comments

The default text editor (gEdit) is a competent equivalent of notepad++, it's just that you have to enable some things which would do programming better.

There's a database of desktops and laptops compatibility on https://friendly.ubuntu.com/ which helped me to decide which laptop to buy a while ago. I ended up buying a Dell Inspiron N4050 at that time, zero regrets.

If you have access to the folder where the application is deployed (eg. TOMCAT/webapps/) you can take a look at (TOMCAT/webapps/3rdpartyapp/WEB-INF/) and if you see files called applicationContext .xml or any spring .jar files under WEB-INF

I don't agree, I'd advise not to try Leiningen until you're comfortable enough with the parenthesis, the REPL and finish the koans themselves. This is 'getting your feet wet on Clojure', koans style. No need to introduce yet another tool wh
