Thing is that people like Musk and Bezos derive their opulence from exploitation of people who have to sell labour to live. The fortune Bezos amassed is created through labour of people his enterprise employs. People piss in bottles working

The difference being is that role of luck has been shown to be a factor in scientific studies [1]. And it is obvious to anybody capable of rational thought that this should be the case. People who are born into wealth have more opportunitie

I find that I read both. Web articles can be useful for keeping up with recent news or tech developments. However, books are excellent for doing a deep dive into a subject. I started to reserve at least an hour for book reading every day, a

Glad to hear this was helpful, and regarding managing stuff like credentials, I like the pattern of initializing the client up front using component, mount. Then passing the client in the resource map. The advantage over simply passing cred

Saying that CL is simpler and saner than Clojure is a pretty hot take. CL is a huge and complex language with lots of legacy decisions and quirks. Clojure is a far smaller and more focused language by comparison. Meanwhile, things like data
