Today in the Intertweets (Aug 23rd Ed)

  • What language to replace Haskell ? OCaml Scala Erlang Clojure Python (via @GabrielKast) -- This is the results of "The State of Haskell" survey, inspired by @cemerick's initiative. Good read. They'd rather use OCaml, Scala, and Erlang before Clojure if Haskell were to disappear.
  • New #clojure #ring middlewares released handling req params and serializing response in a RESTful and extensible way (via @nilsgrunwald) -- Takes care of serialization/deserialization and supports json, yaml and clojure (for ClojureScript clients)
  • Object Oriented Macros (via @HNTweets) -- I'd suggest that you read this first and then go over the article, and then first you'll be like "Oh?!" and then "Ahh..." and finally, "Oooooh!".
  • A Clojure map inside an atom is about 2x more efficient than a HashMap with a lock (via @nathanmarz) -- With code to back the assertion.
  • Another Rough Cut of Clojure Programming has been "released" (via @cemerick) -- don't have it yet? That's because it's not published yet, but you can get access to the book as it is being written via the Rough Cuts program.
  • Want to know what Clojure/conj speakers are tweeting about? A list, for your convenience (via @clojure_conj)
  • CLI structural form editor for #clojure, inspired by INTERLISP (via @alandipert) -- Built using zippers, this is a very interesting structural editor. Go over to the gist and check out the editing session, it shows the power of zippers :). Inspired by Interlisp (hey, did you know that 1981 was 30 years ago? Right, I also freaked out).
