disclojure: all things clojure

Feb1202

Web Application Development with Clojure – Part 3 (via @hisaitami) — This one covers getting data from the database and rendering via templates.
Now available online @ O’Reilly: the *final* draft of Clojure Programming by @cemerick, @briancarper, & @cgrand (via @ClojureBook) — 600+ pages of pure and unadulterated Clojure, all in one package!
My new blog is up! First post: Monads are design patterns for DSL’s. (via @jimduey) — This post explains monads by using them in building a DSL.
clj (0.0.1): Like json, but with clojure sexps. (via @rubygems) — Oooo, now you can exchange cloure sexps back and forth with Ruby!
Good blog posting – Java and Clojure – How data structures influence language usage (via @staypufd) — You might have experienced this too, the ease in which you can work with complex data structures in Clojure changes the way you code, more so if you come from a low-level imperative language.

Emblogginated: Clojure Conj 2011 – Learning more pt.1 (via @fogus) — Yesterday Clojure/Conj released the first videos of the last conference. This post augments those talks by adding pointers to possible follow-up topics.
Flog: “Some thoughts about classes after 18 months of Clojure” (via @jasonrudolph) — This is a 30 min presentation about how to rethink OO in Ruby by taking the perspective of Clojure and separating data, typing and methods.
Bunch of people in #clojure are digging @trptcolin’s reply (alternative REPL frontend)…coming soon to leiningen? (via @cemerick) — Cool, so now we have too of such initiatives going on. Definitely the barebones REPL frontend needed some love!

and we are live! EuroClojure 2012 “the first 2-day, full-blown conference in Europe for the Clojure community.” (via @EuroClojure) — Niiiice! Did you want to go to London but didn’t have a valid excuse to do so? Now you have one: two days of Clojure talks, with a very interesting talk selection method. Now, where can I find a cheap flight?
First Conj 2011 Videos Available (via @clojure_conj) — Speaking of Conferences. If you were to slow snagging a ticket for last year’s Clojure/conj, you can pretend you did go by watching these very well produced videos of the talks. This is the first batch, more to come.
The first public demo of the @LonoCloud OS implementing a multi-cloud federated mobile health application in #Clojure (via @0×1B) — Flashy! Doesn’t show any Clojure code though…

A sweet blog on the challenges of developing games with Clojure (via @swannodette) — Not many people think of Clojure when deciding to write a computer game, but some do, and this article summarizes where Clojure falls short in as a gaming platform.
Solving Pell’s equations with the Chakravala method and Clojure (via @hnfirehose) — Apparently solving some of the Project Euler problems is not a trivial task, and in this case it needed implementing an algorithm that is over 1000 years old. Older than LISP! Bonus: more clojure solutions for Project Euler problems.
Just pushed the Swank Clojure 1.4.0 release with a stable CDT debugger and improved stack traces. Thanks to @tavisrudd and @georgejahad (via @technomancy) — What this means is that Emacs gains an even better debugger if you’re using swank-clojure (you probably are).
clojure and leiningen – using a git repository as dependency (via @tobyhede) — Now that’s one little gem hidden in the goldmine that ClojureScript One is: declare git repos (and even the actual commit) as project dependencies. Why use a Maven repo when you can go straight to the source?!!?
Announcing the new Clojure/West “Friend of Attendee” program! You could get a discount or refund! (via @ClojureWest) — That’s right, refer a friend to Clojure/West (or any other human I believe) and get a discount or a refund if you have already paid (as long as your ‘friend’ buys a ticket too)
- So far the company with the most developers attending Clojure/West is… Apple. Surprised? (via @ClojureWest) — I am not going to lie: yes, surprised.
“The Reasoned Scheduler” (via @cgrand) — “tl;dr How I realized that core.logic (or miniKanren) is essentially a scheduler.”

[InfoQ]Presentation: Event-Driven Programming in Clojure (via @skrlatica) — This is the video of Zach Tellman’s excellent talk on working asynchronously in Clojure.
Creating a custom map type in Clojure (via @david_mcneil) — This is very interesting. This gist shows you how you can build typed maps in clojure, including building them from literals (in Clojure 1.3).
Wrote a bit about project automation and the poison of nondeterminism in Leiningen (via @technomancy) — This is an excellent write-up about what makes build automation sometimes unreliable, listing the worst offender parts of this automations, the reason why they make the process unreliable and ways to solve this issue in leiningen.
Clojure sparks LISP usage in the enterprise. Am I right? Wrong? Comments, please (via @JWVerity) — It is interesting to see how Clojure is permeating the Enterprise, to the point that IT magazines are picking up the trend. This article is for IT Software Community, and it explains the many ways Clojure is used in Enterprise settings.
