Any recommendations for a web framework in clojure? I played around with Noir for a while but it seems like that project is abandoned now? What's the Sinatra/Flash of Clojure?

Too funny, and I agree HN can be a bit predictable at times.

This looks great, couple feature requests: 1. California Corps and LLC 2. Make California's franchise tax disappear :P

In Angular HTML is the view so that's where ng-click and friends go, while other MVC frameworks have view js files. I know people like to be 'unobtrusive' but many JS MVC apps would be useless without JS so there's nothing to fall back to (

I'm sure it's fixable, it's just not the best first impression for those new to the ecosystem :) I love trying out new languages (prag pubs 7 languages in 7 days is great) but for production work I want to know that down the line if I need

Don't want to turn this into Stack Exchange and this may be homebrew's fault on OS X but I just tried installing 'haskell-platform' and got: Error: Building the QuickCheck-2.5.1.1 package failed make: *** [build.stamp] Error 2 Ok

I investigated Haskell for a while and as long as I didn't try to add any libs it was fun. However once I started using cabal to try and manage dependencies all hell broke loose. Obviously it takes a while to get it right (looking at you SB

Sure you bought it, but what did you buy? Did you buy the rights to whatever you please with it? It depends. Say I only sell an MP3 through Amazon what are you doing? You're buying it with the following terms of use, which you agree to by t

I think it depends on the project/author. First thing I check on a project is the commit history. Was the last commit a year and a half ago? Might be a clue :) I've reported bugs to bootstrap, d3.js, and fabric.js. Everyone was very respons

Locking the keychain works until you unlock it from another app. If you enter your keychain password for Mail app or for a web password it becomes unlocked for the terminal command. Which is unexpected behavior as from within keychain, even

I agree that comfort is the issue. The airlines squeeze so many seats now into coach that for tall or larger passengers it's very uncomfortable for cross country flights. I'm 6'2" the space under the seat in front of me is always taken up b

This looks like MVC to me as well, except what MOVE is calling operations I would call commands. There are quite a few MVC frameworks that work like this, including PureMVC which has been implemented in almost every OOP language http://pur

I'll second Ruby because of Sinatra and add some of my own thoughts. Sinatra is a very gentle introduction to separation of concerns. You can get a Sinatra app running on a shared Dreamhost with the same effort as a PHP site. PHP was ok for

I agree that the majority of the blame for Flash dying is Adobe's fault but not for the reasons you outlined. Outside of security concerns everything bad about Flash can be accomplished with 'HTML5', <canvas>, SVG, and JavaScript if

It may not be a revolution but anything that replaces QR codes is a step in the right direction. It's much more intuitive to tap, swipe, or just be near something than to interact with a QR code.

This is slightly off-topic but seeing the soundtracks bundled with purchase reminded me of it. Can you make decent money creating soundtracks for games? Seems like on of the few avenues musicians have left other than non-stop touring.

I can say from experience that staying up late works for a while, but you'll eventually hit a wall and hate life. Now, if I have a side gig, I go to sleep almost as soon as my son is in bed (I say almost because you need to have some non-pa

Wouldn't be so quick to down-vote his comment. I don't think scribd is stealing code or that submissions will be directly applicable, but there's some cross-over between a game like this and searching/crawling a db/docs/network. It's a grea

Isn't this the command pattern, except instead of 'execute' you use 'call'? Update: not saying that's a bad thing I used to be a Flex developer and all the frameworks used MVCS (Robotlegs being my favorite). Controllers are all commands and

Some have questioned whether it was gaming that killed him, obviously playing video games won't give you a heart attack. However sitting in one place for hours on end could give you one (or a stroke). Playing games, coding, flying, in all t

Interfaces like this look cool in movies but your hands aren't 'designed' to be above your heart for an extended period of time. Now if you had something like a drafting table with a touch screen I'd be first in line.

Perfect timing for me, I'm helping a friend learn to program (in Ruby) with the goal of using his new found knowledge for data collection/analysis. It's like you wrote the book just for us. :)

Wow, looks (and sounds) great, listening to the Four Tet one as we speak :) It looks like all the sounds are hosted on SoundCloud, is this in your own pro+ account? I'm guessing this was the most economical way to host the files?

I agree, yes public shaming is free but he also just told the world he blew up a production database. That said I'll paraphrase Tom Watson when an employee of his made a $100,000 mistake "Are you kidding? We just spent $100,000 on your trai

I was hoping for news on reducing comment spam. Repost looks cool but I fear "plz repost me" will be the new "hey, I love (but didn't actually listen to) your track, plz follow me and like me on facebook".
