Internally those are "persistent data structures" in Clojure which don't duplicate the data but instead mutate a underlying tree that links both the old state and the new state Then as a developer you are looking into a certa

I've used it indirectly through Arcadia which allows you to use Clojure as a live programming environment inside the unity game engine It's pretty cool

This is the same for me, Sublime 4 is faster and more polished than VSCode and Intellji is more feature packed Personally I switch between Sublime Text 4 and Intellji depending on the task, VSCode in my opinion isn't outstanding in eit

Braid itself was novel because it took game state and made it immutable, immutability often needs a lot of consideration This is definitely speculation on my part but maybe he didn't become a coder focused on his craft because of the f

Aw I thought this would be an article about representing code in different ways, as text, as browsable namespaces etc

As a frequent user of each of these languages this appears quite cool The thing putting me off is both PHP and Clojure have mature/maturing tooling that I suspect would be unusable here On the PHP side there's LSP servers, xdebug

Along these lines I'm tempted to try out game maker studio 2 at some point, I think in code we rely way too much on text I'd love lots of custom project specific UI in my ide showing all kinds of things to help me out with my larg

Something I'm noticing more and more is that programming is for the most part is not fun Fun things are visual, immediate full of feedback and introspection, a sensible curve of difficulty and reward for effort A raspberry pi doesn&#x2

SPAs designed to mirror state on the server have a distributed data problem, there are lots of problems there in terms of fetching, updating, ensuring the users are traversing from action, loading, success/failure etc Then there's

Just because you can specify something doesn't mean you always should There's a cost to type coupling and over specification

As a Clojurian I just run static analysis It can be nice to use an optional type/spec system to help with that but not required

I make no opinion on the author but something like this: https://twitter.com/ibdknox/status/1328797793138266113?s=20 Does make me think programming can be radically different and maybe a lot easier

"acts as an invaluable pair-programming buddy that gives instantaneous feedback during development." This is the key bit, this is called static analysis, you don't need a type system in your language to do this, and you don&#

I'm surprised PHPers haven't started noticing that over specifying something can be a problem too Hopefully ADT support should help illustrate that, I had to use F# for a long time to notice that
