ah, and one solution to the font sharpness issue is to use bitmap fonts, indeed. I haven't found good ones though which are available at 16px or above sizes, which are necessary for 2K or 4K displays. Also they are typically quite wide

I also found that the 16:10 is a better ratio, than 16:9, when working with code. I wish there would be more 1920x1200 or 2560x1600 displays... Lacking those options at reasonable prices leaves me with the option of using rotated 2K monitor

That's likely a firmware bug in the monitor. It probably reports some ridiculously small resolution during its boot process and macOS queries it that time and rearranges the windows accordingly. macOS could implement workarounds of cou

Or you can also use the transient/volatile versions of data structures and functions, but I wouldn't know where to learn about these in depth. I've seen them being mentioned briefly in some official docs on clojure.org and se

I have to concur that it's not easy to gather what's idiomatic and why. It took me watching the "transducers", "inside transducers" and "reducers" talks several times, before i realized that `into`, `

My bet would be that you are working with the Linux version of Emacs. That's indeed a lot less problematic and more performant too. Under macOS and Windows, the situation is not that rosy and since ppl want familiarity, they typically

aaand I guess that's what ppl mean by "ergonomics issues". Emacs is very stable, quite logical in some sense, but also hasn't kept up with the times and doesn't default to those typical keyboard shortcuts, which mos

When have you tried Clojure? Startup time was also a deterrent for me initially, but that was ~7-8years. I annoyed the heck out of me. I was doing Rails back then and that was too much too. Nowadays however the situation is a lot better. Fo

This sounds fishy to me too... Have you actually consulted anyone, with more Clojure experience, how to avoid the need for `(map vec <thing>)` all over the place? I would guess you were working with deeply nested data structures and y

Aaaand this works on arrays, but would you know how to make it work for files? You would need to do something like how the essay wrapped the `rdr` into a sequence, but it would still require (probably) the whole data to be present in the me

I got the feeling that Atom might be a better analogy. For example, you can get a Spacemacs like environment if you use the Proton extension ( https://discuss.atom.io/t/announce-proton-vim-focused-spacem... ), which itse

I had ~1GB swapped out on 32GB 3.4GHz quad i7 machine. 5GB was taken up by ~8 tabs in FF. I noticed it because IntelliJ and Android Studio started to be suspiciously laggy. I mean laggier than usual :) After stopping FF, the IDEs went back

First of all, thanks for sharing; it's a very educational piece of code! I have some generic coding advice though. With slightly better names you can get rid of a lot of the comments. There is a lot of repetition in the code. If you fa

+1 for playing some music as a form of break. When I was younger I often practiced simple songs on a tin-whistle, recorder, kaval or flute. I liked the saxophone the most but that requires too much maintenance, hence it's a distraction

I'm just using a 27" 5K iMac, BUT sometimes I change its resolution from the default, virtually 2560x1440 one to the highest DPI, which I guess is the native 5120x2880 and I just pull it closer and/or lean closer to it. I thi
