I think the problem, really, is mutability, which leads to pretty unintuitive results. The same is true for javascript. For example at first glance you'd expect var xs=[]; for (var i=0; i<10; i++) {xs.append(function(){return

Same in javascript: var fns=[]; for (var i=0; i<3; i++) { fns.push(function(){return i}); }; fns.map(function(x) { return x.call(); }); Returns [ 3, 3, 3 ]

The article may not be news for you, but it doesn't pretend to be a comprehensive guide: it introduces common issues and explains their relation through an experience report. We do need to talk more about garbage collection. Many devel

Thanks for writing this, I agree especially with the first point. Scott Oaks's "Java Performance" [1] does a good job of explaining the different GC's available in the JVM. He also goes into the many, many GC-related JVM

I agree with most of the recommendation in this article (thanks for publishing it!), but the advice about futures should be taken with a grain of salt. You need to be careful with futures because they swallow exceptions. However, the soluti

This is not true. Some platforms, such as Clojure, are usually very stable once released, and there is rarely the need for point releases, as the code was stabilized during the alpha/rc periods.

Yes, unfortunately Clojure startup performance problems are home-grown and cannot be blamed on the JVM. On the other hand, once a Clojure repl is running, you can keep adding things without recompiling or even losing state, which can be a h

I would encourage you to start by learning Ansible's yaml syntax, which really goes a long way and which represents a lot of best practices in the devops world, such as immutability, configurability and config file templating. I have y

Ansible is probably the single most useful tool for doing working with servers today. It somehow manages to be simple and very featureful at the same time. Personally, a good chunk of my effectiveness in workings with servers and cloud prov

Prismatic Schema is wonderful. One useful property is that a schema is just a regular data structure (often a map). So you're free to use regular data structure processing functions: (def Customer {:customer-id s/Int, :addre

I like it, thanks for building it! So far I've used csvkit ( https://csvkit.readthedocs.org/en/0.9.1/ ), which is quite powerful. Can `rei` also parse the header row of CSV files to automatically assign names t

Yes, in my mind this is the way to go (the other alternative, probably unviable, being scsh https://github.com/scheme/scsh ). I recently made a decision not to write any bash scripts that include a conditional or loop;

csvkit is excellent. I like `csvlook` for display csv files in the terminal. Can anyone recommend an easy way to convert csv to xls on Linux? I know that libreoffice and gnumeric can do it in headless mode, but it seems terrible overkill.

It's worth noting that, although Clojure is undoubtedly dynamically typed, it does more extensive compile-time checking than, e.g., Python or PHP. For example ;; clojure (let [colour :red] (f color)) will throw a compile-t

The problem is real. Reading assignments are much longer and often more challenging in the humanities than in the sciences. If you study history or sociology or philosophy, you're expected to read long and (initially) seemingly incompr

Maybe it was actually an OPTION/GET combination? In that case, it's actually useful that Postman is running in Chrome because it shares the same environment and constraints.

Well, the advantages are more evident when you generate HTML dynamically from any source. Typically the data you want to render will already be passed in in the form of Clojure data structures (sequences). With hiccup syntax, all you need t

For my money, hiccup (and thus reagent ) get the syntax for generating HTML trees right. It's one of those things that I always thought didn't matter, until I tried it. Something that is very useful is that hiccup automatically
