This was a great example, and I think you are absolutely right that it is the identical in function, if not in form, to mine. Interestingly, in the course of concocting a counter-counter example, I came up with this in an effort to show the

The proposal is not dependent on boot, only our demonstration of it is.

I agree that Feature Expressions don't add power, because yes, they are semantically equivalent to C preprocessing and orthogonal to the idea of Lisp. What excites us most about Feature Macros is that they do add power. Here is an e

Ah, point taken. Here is a valid version: (case-host :clj (deftype Foo [] JvmOnlyInterface (aMethod [blah blah] ...)) :cljs (deftype Foo [])) (extend-type Foo SomeCommonProtocol

What's wrong with: (deftype Foo SomeCommonProtocol (aMethod [blah blah] ...)) (+clj (extend-type Foo JvmOnlyInterface (someMethod [blah] ...))) Can you come up with another example you consi

Wow, that all sounds like an absolute nightmare! Have you taken a look at broccoli[1]? We ran across it after going the Fileset route, but were refreshed to see that it also does a kind of Fileset thing (they call them "trees")[2

Sure! A minimal Java project with boot might look like: mkdir -p boot-java/src cd boot-java echo 'public class Main{public static void main(String[]args){System.out.println("hi!");}}' > src/Ma

Yes, the arithmetic primitives don't support variadic arguments. You can see how + works - and that it only deals with the first two arguments - here: https://github.com/alandipert/gherkin/blob/278354246

Bash has many features and for me has been useful to know because it's almost everywhere, but it was never designed to be what it has become. I'm working on escaping it forever with gherkin, a Lisp I wrote in Bash 4. gherkin is s

I enjoyed the article but was also a little bummed `for` wasn't mentioned at all. Minor nit: `for` is a macro in the clojure.core namespace, not a special form. Special forms in Clojure are these: http://clojure.org/special_forms

My point is that they desugar directly to data structures (instantiated in Java, in LispReader) instead of operation forms that evaluate to data structures. See vector creation: https://github.com/clojure/clojure/blob/52633274225370dfb058.

Your example is nonsense. Clojure's keep is based on lazy sequences instead of concrete lists, and is also optimized for performance. That said, you raise a point that occurred to me recently, and it relates to Clojure's literal representat

Rich Hickey's "Simple Made Easy" talk from Strange Loop is filled with great ammo: http://www.infoq.com/presentations/Simple-Made-Easy Personally, it gave me new vocabulary and conceptual tools for explaining why I like Clojure so much.
