Hi, sorry for the short notice (didn't know about this channel), I'll be in Bengalore from tomorrow till 8th of March for PgConf 2025, are there any meet-ups planed during that time or just someone who wants to pair program (P.S. I'm a total Clojure novice so... it'll be more me learning from you)?

Saket 2025-03-01T05:01:36.325799Z

I am up for a meet up

Shantanu 2025-03-01T06:20:19.041609Z

How about sometime tomorrow?

Shantanu 2025-03-01T06:21:07.899159Z

Whatever time and place that is convenient for everyone is interested? (Preferably somewhere with some metro connectivity πŸ˜…)

2025-02-27T12:10:16.438879Z

What's that event ? I'm in Goa and experienced clojur dev

Shantanu 2025-02-27T14:49:33.749499Z

are you asking about PgConf? in that case it's an event for Postgres India else I'm enquiring whether if there are any events planned in Bangalore for Clojure within next week or any clojure group, etc.

2025-02-27T15:47:53.635109Z

Maybe we should make one

Shantanu 2025-02-27T17:02:44.219269Z

I’m game, anyone else interested?

Ketan 2025-02-28T04:35:58.738559Z

yes let’s meet and talk clojure 😊

What date & time works?

adi 2025-02-28T07:40:37.385619Z

Plugging Underline Center as a cool place to meet and greet... Run by a BLR colleague, it is a co-work space by day and event-space by night. https://underline.center/

prabhanshu 2025-03-11T07:09:31.293069Z

Oops. Fully missed this, by a couple of weeks that too:man-facepalming:🏻 fomoing. Would love to host another thing when folks feel up to it. Maybe in a couple month's time?

Shantanu 2025-03-12T04:55:11.004369Z

can't guarantee anything but will try my best to attend whenever you guys decide to do it next!

First worldwide Goa clojure holiday conference

Saket 2025-03-01T09:39:26.467419Z

How do we schedule an event here? Do we directly connect with them on WhatsApp?

adi 2025-03-01T09:40:07.651309Z

Where, at underline.center? Contact them directly.

adi 2025-03-01T09:41:00.419639Z

Alt: you could just check with them about co-working during the day and do that.

adi 2025-03-01T09:41:28.290049Z

I only suggested it because they are nerd-friendly people.

πŸ™Œ 1
Saket 2025-03-01T09:41:49.072959Z

Alright. Will connect with them. We have 3 people from Bengaluru. @ketan.srivastav you up? What time will work for you? I am available from 9-5 tomorrow

adi 2025-03-01T09:42:02.305259Z

Logistically, it may be easier for everybody to walk to Toit from the Indiranagar station laughcry

adi 2025-03-01T09:42:29.265129Z

Not sure about ease of the walk back from Toit, though laughcry

πŸ˜‚ 1
Saket 2025-03-01T09:43:49.721079Z

I am more afraid that I'll start a Clojure cult in toit, while drunk.

adi 2025-03-01T09:44:12.406059Z

I mean, that will be great

adi 2025-03-01T09:44:50.670739Z

@mx2000 now you show up... I was frequently in Goa from mid 2022-2024. I was living up North, variously Chapora, Siolim, Assagaon.

Shantanu 2025-03-01T09:45:45.937909Z

Wouldn’t mind the idea of talking Clojure with a couple of beers

βž• 1
Shantanu 2025-03-01T09:46:05.573249Z

Toit is supposed to have pretty good brews, I believe

adi 2025-03-01T09:46:09.672509Z

@mx2000 do you know @abhinav.omprakash10?

Saket 2025-03-01T09:47:47.131869Z

If you don't mind visiting Whitefield, I have another great place for beers. It's also close to the metro station.

Shantanu 2025-03-01T09:48:32.016909Z

Works for me, my availability is the same as yours, pretty much all day tomorrow

Saket 2025-03-01T09:49:34.363579Z

@ketan.srivastav let me know your availability. I'll book a table.

Shantanu 2025-03-01T09:50:59.173079Z

FYI I’m 23 (turning 24 this may) in Maharashtra 21 is the legal age for beer but 25 for higher content, what are the rules regarding the same here 🀞? (I only drink beer)

adi 2025-03-01T09:51:55.920249Z

πŸ˜‚ 2
Saket 2025-03-01T09:54:46.261159Z

Or perhaps: (let [beer 'bring us 'Clojure] 'here)

adi 2025-03-01T09:55:05.585229Z

your cult, you lead

adi 2025-03-01T09:56:17.228849Z

only those who can paren-balance and syntax-quote the slogan correctly after one pitcher are inducted into the cult

adi 2025-03-01T09:58:39.822399Z

aside: problems in this thread that I wish I had... > I stay in Goa only problem and > I’m 23

adi 2025-03-01T10:00:52.107279Z

Ideally, I would like to have both these problems today, knowing what my 20-something-y.o. friends are up to in Goa...

Grass is greener. A lot of those 20 year olds will also want to be where you are today

adi 2025-03-01T10:03:56.893409Z

bro I'm single, balding, unemployed, in a coffee shop, all by myself, typing into a chat window

adi 2025-03-01T10:04:12.324669Z

and I don't have any grass

Saket 2025-03-01T10:04:19.418699Z

🌴🌊 Code flows like the tide, patterns emerging from the infinite recursion of thought. πŸ’»βœ¨ On LSD, Clojure feels less like a language and more like a cosmic revelationβ€”parentheses embracing the universe itself. πŸŒŒπŸŒ€

Conjure Goa 2025 🐢🎈

adi 2025-03-01T10:09:33.989519Z

the nice thing about the place is you can have your own scene... mine is a beach evening... work out, run, take a dip in the sea until the sun sets and the life guards yell at you to get out of the water, then lay about on the beach until the crowd thins out, and the stars slowly appear, and the moon rises above the horizon behind you... don't need anything else for magic :)

Tomorrow

Ketan 2025-03-01T16:11:54.051859Z

Oh shoot, i have some stuff planned for tomorrow evening. But please, carry on without me. Perhaps i will join some other time.

Shantanu 2025-03-02T02:00:17.743539Z

@saket.is.sam Just confirming, today @ 3 @ https://maps.app.goo.gl/RnyiZ8XVJ8bfNcpHA?

Had a great time chatting Clojure and programming in general with @saket.is.sam πŸ™Œ I’m still in Bangalore till 8th, we can have another meet-up such as the one today (5th to 7th will be a bit tight for me but I can at least try) if it suits your time/availability constraints @ketan.srivastav (also if @saket.is.sam can find some time, it’d be great if he can join too)

This work week would be difficult for me. Let's plan something bigger for the next time πŸ˜„
