For anyone still using org.clojure/java.jdbc, I just released 0.7.12 to Maven Central. The only difference from 0.7.11 is that most of the protocols are now extensible via metadata making it easier to work with a wider variety of data types (just like in next.jdbc). Follow-up in #sql

My dear Clojure friends, Developing in Clojure over the last 9 year taught me so many powerful general insights about programming. I am writing a book called “Data-Oriented programming” in which I am attempting to share part of those insights with the global developer community. The https://www.manning.com/books/data-oriented-programming?utm_source=viebel&amp;utm_medium=affiliate&amp;utm_campaign=book_sharvit2_data_1_29_21&amp;a_aid=viebel&amp;a_bid=d5b546b7 is available in early stage at http://manning.com.

I recognize plantuml diagrams ! Good choice

Yehonathan Sharvit20:02:30

Hehe! Being able to have “source code” for diagrams motivates me to create lots of diagrams. I don’t have to bother my mind with the look and feel of the diagram. I focus on the “logic” of the diagram. Also, I have the ability to refactor diagrams across the whole project (e.g. fixing a typo or changing the case of a term…)

I love that you posted this, because earlier today I had posted a link to the book on our company’s internal Clojure Slack channel saying “This looks like a book about how to program as if you were using Clojure”! 😀

A use case I love also, being able to generate diagrams.

I am so happy. Spread the word among your friends!

@U018VMC8T0W Would you be interested in contributing to a Wikipedia article about Data-oriented programming?

Sounds like fun and a good way to learn more about the subject 😄

Yehonathan Sharvit17:02:24

Definitely. I have added you to #data-oriented-programming. There is a link there to the draft of the Wikipedia article and how you could contribute.
