For what it's worth, I think physical science education is closer to what you are describing. I studied chemistry, and I'm not sure if it's a causal relationship, but I find I am much better at debugging (in development) and

Acornfiles? I feel like when you introduce a new config format, a common expectation will be having a prominent "Why Acornfiles?" page where you explain why this new format is necessary. Without it, I personally groan and look awa

Yes, I'd stop spending on luxuries . Do corporations ever tout this new department or new project as a luxury ? Isn't it always: "this new thing is vital to our continued success and growth!"

That's fair, I didn't intend to sound entitled, but "let's all decide what Rails-like to use" doesn't seem to be working for Clojurists, so I was hoping that poking at other avenues might spark some productive

At some point, do we have to consider that the problem might be Clojure itself? Does LISP lend itself to "Rails" -- a Rails that people want to work with? I ask, genuinely, as a near-total outsider. The comparison to Elixir got me

Are you suggesting a Result type and Exceptions are mutually exclusive? Scala bolted `Either` (a Result type) on top of Java, and it worked exceptionally well in my experience.

Oh I see. My intention wasn't to compare the two nations, but that I was surprised that people across the globe feel the same way about their government and politics and COVIDs influence on it.

I'm sorry, I don't follow. But I am interested in understanding if you could expand.

Re (2): public roads burden all with the cost of roads (and inducing car travel). We don't expect roads to make money, as far as I'm aware.

Following the general principles of functional programming, even outside of FP-specific languages (Python) has served me well.

Agreed that direct conversation is the only good approach. But I also want to mention: have their been any actual outcomes from this project, or is the board just "excited about it"? Has there been revenue realized? If you ask f

Agreed! And I never reach for them, because I work on web apps. If I was a database developer, the story might be different. But I don't feel the need to be interviewed on those topics over and over again. Subsequently, I don't

A direct reply to which tweet? The tweet which Outreach replied to is not visible "because the account owner limits who can view their tweets".

by ttymck 4y ago
Outreach doesn't explicitly state the reason he was terminated. There are a number of tweets suggesting it wasn't the bodegas video. It's certainly not a good look, but this title is jumping to conclusions.

Oh wow, this looks really good. I want to say, what I was really hoping to see is a "how does this work?" section. I'll read the source code, but it would be nice to have a quick narrative explanation. EDIT: Looks like the &q

Really sensible, straightforward recommendations. Nothing flashy. Honestly I think these should be defaults (or at least configurable options) of the project generator. I guess you could use cookiecutter, but it's not really worth it.

Could you expand on what an "index on the fly" would look like? I imagine the engine could provision and maintain a separate index file, but the guarantees for keeping it in sync with the recfile would be tenuous. Interested in ta
