1. Cut all liquid calories (juices, smoothies, et al even if they are home-made). This includes alcohol. 2. Join a good + intense Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) gym.

For sure. YourKit is an excellent piece of software to discover the hot spots in the code that are the bottleneck in such cases. It takes just a few minutes to discover and add the type hints in the proper places.

Like others said, Clojure does not reflect on every call. A good resource if you really want to push the perf limit http://clojure-goes-fast.com

Those are well reasoned points. I'm not going to delve into STM because that can be a whole book worth of discussion :). It's a fascinating universe, I've spent many hours (weeks, months?) exploring it, and I don't consi

You can "solve" global mutable state with an IDE until you bring concurrency plus parallelism into the mix. Then all bets are off for mutable global state. In the case of Clojure, the map that you pass to a function is a value. It

Just read about the Overton window. Curious & neat concept, thank you. I agree.

The article says Apple "plans" to add an oxygen sensor to the Apple Watch. It already has that. I am looking forward to blood glucose monitoring via the Watch.

As much as I love markets in a libertarian sort of way, they are not perfect. Markets can be slow, and there are many different types of customers. Fox News and CNN still "sell" decently well. CNN used to be the "real news&qu

"One possible answer here is that these things (e.g., memory, emotion, decision-making, and pain) actually have more in common than we perceive." This is definitely true. A high adrenaline state (imagine the emotion of being on a

"I" can doubt but we can all most likely get many millions of people plus some monkeys and other species to more or less agree that there is a rock with very much the same characteristics. That's a good enough description of

A rock has a precise definition. And there's strong evidence to support that statement. For example, many species can be taught to distinguish, say, rock from food. Consciousness does not have a precise definition. It's a very neb

>>> One of Clojure's biggest weaknesses in practice is that breaking in to those functional structures to figure out where the time is being spent or to debug them is harder than in other languages. This is a natural trade-off

The term FAANG was created in 2013 which is not that long ago. FAANG didn't really become a super "hot" place to be until after the 2009-2011 recession. Looking back, everything is often crystal clear 20/20 vision. &quot

Even though not part of the language, Clojure can do this via a library like https://github.com/technomancy/serializable-fn (I just learned about this).
