Not sure what you mean here, but... no. You can rebind, of course, but I never found myself in a situation where the REPL was too bad to be used. I usually restart the REPL only when I add a dependenc…

I feel it would be safe to say that "AI models that x are not as accurate as reports might suggest" for the current hype values of x.

Modern Clojure includes that - it's deps.edn (though I'm good with Leiningen). And ditch Emacs (unless you are already using it/used to it) and try VSCode + Calva that runs basically ou…

What is there to install? once you have Java, there is nothing else but Clojure itself (that is a Java library...)

Lots of pictures on Fourmilab, from John Walker of Autodesk fame: https://fourmilab.ch/images/eclipse_2008/S005.html …

AirSensEUR is an open framework focused on air quality monitoring using low cost sensors. The project started on 2014 from a group of passionate researchers and engineers. The framework is composed by…

Obviously I'd be very happy, but I would not be peddling my "data driven" miracle cure to the Interweb.

I know I'm a contrarian here, but frankly I won't take health suggestions from someone who is an amateur and has never studied the field (where "studied" means at least a degree no…

BUT... it's so easy for corporate IT dept to buy into. Each different vendor is a different nightmare - but with MS you have only one. And they have it all. And it's maybe not best in class,…

It's interesting how the back-end part is "funny" as well. If you a Teams to Teams call, your internal call flow ends up being exposed to the calling party [1] - and that's not wha…

...because if you are playing with a piano, and you play those intervals "right", they will be out of tune.

What I'm really missing is not del.icio.us but the project from where it all started, memepool.com and its dry humor - see e.g. https://web.archive.org/web/20060519101406…

The big issue here is that (most) Clojure libraries that interact with the rest of the world do wrap some high-quality Java libraries (JDBC, web servers, etc) so Jank would start afresh here. CLJS has…

Definitely - they would watch androids play because they'd root for a team and the people involved.

> Very few people would watch Olympic Games performed by realistic androids. Why not? a cyclist is a "realistic android" to a runner. It would just be different, more like F1.

I believe you are right: read this as a great sci-fi (in the literal, not Asimovian sense) book, and then you'll get some ideas. YMMV, but you won't mind the time spent reading it.

St Charles. This brings back memories. I fly in at like 9pm and there is nothing open to eat, at all. Only one slice of leftover pizza at the "social centre", and it did taste like cardboar…

And that's why there is so much interest in Erlang/Elixir.

Not that the New Yorker and The Economist play in the same league.

> and not giving a toss about performance was indeed easy. Few auxiliary tools were required. When the internet came through a modem and bandwidth was very expensive, performance was concern #1. So…

Weird guy.

Not sure why, the correct link is https://www.queuemetrics.com/blog/2021/05/04/Monitor-QueueMe... but HN changed the link to the top of the blog.…
