   Hahah, thanks. Flexibility (w/ scaling and structure), fine-tuned performance, these are totally the things that draw me in. Taking note of what you've written.

   I believe the parens are off by one in the Clojure example and that it should be: (- (+ 1 (* 2 10)) (/ 12 3)) ;=> 17 I've found the threading operator can help in these cases. (-> (+ 1) (+ (* 2 10) (- (&#x2F

   There's another way to see this. A question asked in chat just today by a German journalist friend who specialises in Asia and esp the Koreas: "And im seriously wondering: if there were no americans holding back the sk tyrants of

   Could be good, but Hong Kong is massively expensive and mainland China is censored, with slow int'l data connections, presumably because they have to scan for words like "Panama Papers." Goodbye Google, Facebook, real news...

    For this remapping and a few others I'm using Karabiner for OSX. I remap elisp commands in emacs all the time, but I don't know how to remap the keybinding for the single SHIFT to parens. The answer might be here: https:/&#x

    I actually use empty shift for parens, so comfy I almost feel guilty about it...

    Very cool, but what's the issue with mobile? I use Swype and it only inputs the first letter of each word.

    I can make a web app, but know nothing about deployment. I need to use AWS (Elastic Beanstalk I guess) or another major service because of my location. No Digital Ocean, Linode, Heroku. Will this take me from zero to hero? (Could do a MEAN

    Would performance with ClojureScript (Om Next, Reagent, Re-frame, etc.) be any better?

    "If we could get more people working on real problems..." That's a political economic, and social problem. I wonder if a basic income couldn't help here. Of course "free" education also, if it could keep high s

    That's somewhat reassuring (there's thought to be a 12% chance of a Cascadia mega-quake and accompanying west coast tsunami in the next twenty years).

    "A whole data center on cross-oceanic cables would provide a lot of infrastructure they can use to analyze traffic in real-time." And plenty of room for submarine cat-and-mouse. Guess it'd have to be inside US waters.

    Sure, some heat will be added to the ocean. But land-based data centers add heat to the environment and also need to be air conditioned. One question, what happens when there's a tsunami? This is a particularly relevant question on th

    Super interesting, and a not just a bit worrisome. I was reminded of how some ancient societies had periodic forgiveness of debts, perhaps one limited form of redistribution, though as we all know most societies historically have been made
