Clojure: The Documentary trailer just dropped 👀 April 16 premiere — 1 full hour on how #Clojure and its #community came to life. I'm helping out w editing/show notes and yooo.. IT'S GOOD Y'ALL. dont sleep on this. 🎬 youtube.com/watch?v=JJEyffSdBsk

Scicloj open-source mentoring Scicloj offers mentoring to Clojurians who wish to become active in open-source projects. Please reach out What is that? # One of the big challenges of getting involved in open source is gaining a sen...

Do you want to be a compiler hacker? Want to use advanced C++ techniques in practice? Want to learn more about how #clojure works? I'm bringing on a fourth mentee to help work on jank. Reach out here if you're interested! scicloj.github.io/docs/communi...

Yeah, a car bomb is unusual. I get the sense that when it’s performance review related, it usually ends in defenestration for some reason.

I found the most incredible graph on the other site

Manchego is a competitive alternative to Tesla. Or maybe some Munster, for the price aware.

Peak usability was achieved sometime just before flat design.

Mowshowitz writes that 4.5 should be considered a disappointment, in that it failed to clearly and obviously raise the bar on the most important benchmarks. “It’s better, but only in subtle and mysterious ways,” is kind of cool if you are an AI nerd and like experimenting with new models, but is mostly not useful to the average person. This is particularly true given that 4.5 is OpenAI’s most expensive model to use. (It’s about 30 times more expensive than GPT-4o.) Moreover, the model underperformed expectations so sharply that several leading AI researchers actually lengthened their expected timelines for the arrival of artificial general intelligence: a rarity at a time when other developments (including OpenAI’s Deep Research) caused some of those same researchers to shorten their timelines. “Your model has caused me to lengthen my timelines” is considered, in this world, an extremely sick burn.

Long live*

Zippers are cool for this sort of thing

Gives me hope that maybe it's still researcher driven after all.

Never

It's nice to see Reeder reborn! It was at the forefront of good UI design when it first came out for the Mac in 2009, and the new version looks great, too: https://reeder.app/

Some companies like to capitalize their names because it gives their name MORE PROMINENCE compared to other words in eg an article.

Good journalistic practice is to ignore their idiosyncrasies and just capitalize the first letter.

* 687kb, I was viewing an old version apparently.

Most of it would be the immutable data structures I believe.

www.npmjs.com/package/immu... weighs in at 855kb unpacked. Not sure what that is compressed, but it’s not free.

Squint e.g makes trade-offs with stuff like this in order to keep overhead down.

It’s the Clojure runtime, as you guessed. Little to no Closure, since it would have been tree-shook.

Clojure has a similar runtime inclusion overhead, but naturally you’d think less about that on the JVM.

And this was conceived at another time in our history when things were scary and uncertain.

100%

I think the genius move of Star Trek was to set the world in a form where humanity’s problems are mostly solved.

Then the conflict comes (mostly) from the outside, and you get to see us (humans) (mostly) behaving in a way that solves problems and deescalates conflict.

Educational.

Sounds like all of US media, except some customers come back to some of the restaurants because the waiters scream at them—and they like that—and blame the the “ethnic” people two tables over for how terrible the chef is at cooking today.

The takeaway is that when you’re that big and powerful, you don’t need to harm—or indeed do anything—to the duck, even if it’s slightly annoying to you.

Be like this gentle bovine.

I was once visited by an exu in a similar faux pas.

Actual automatic alt text would be great. A suggestion by LLM, confirmed by you.

Haha, yes <subject> sure is <attribute>!

Anyway, have you heard of <memecoin>?

Crush a garlic lightly and leave it in the pan while frying the guanciale.

Gives a mild garlic flavor that doesn’t overpower everything.
