Where most IDEs rely on static analysis to give you information about your code, Light Table is based around live interaction with your code. You can eg attach to a running browser and inject new js or css code into the page from you editor

The code highlighting comes from CodeMirror. Adding ruby support should be fairly simple. The python plugin ( https://github.com/LightTable/Python ) is only ~300 lines of cljs and ~750 lines of python and the cljs side s

You only need a jvm to use the clojure(script) language mode. You can use python/js/html/css modes without a jvm.

While David Barbour does tend towards thinking about loud a great deal before coding (which is certainly sensible), he has also previously implemented these ideas in Sirea ( https://github.com/dmbarbour/Sirea ) and has j

I like that explanation. I may link to your post in future rather than dmbarbours as it requires less background understanding.

I think that a big part of the problem is pervasive access to global state. Given a block of code, it's impossible to tell what effect it (or its sub-calls) might have on the global state. A common design pattern in clojure is to have

It's also the standard way to architect web apps, with stateless logic in the servers connecting to the stateful database. What's interesting about the OP is the idea of making that the only source of state, so that every other

sha1(ip+port) is tricky in the presence of NAT, since different peers may see your packets as coming from different ip+port pairs.

I think the explanation still functions if you also add the belief that work is largely incompressible. If most professional bricklayers take a year to build a passable house and someone tells you they can do it in two days but wants 10x th

Depending on the level of comfort you are used to, you can go a lot cheaper. I shared a room in Bed-Stuy for $350 / month and biked to Hacker School. I did then blow the money I'd saved by eating out every day, but that's a d

I did a fair bit of work in Unity earlier this year. The Unity UI makes a lot more sense once you realise it is built by the objects in the scene. You can code entirely in Visual Studio and just use the Unity window to view the results. But

It's especially frustrating because ClojureCLR won't run on such old versions of Unity. I spent a good three days trying to backport all the necessary library code and eventually gave up. I was really hoping to get a decent intera
