Good Morning!

Jeff R. Allen13:01:07

Hello fellow GMT-1 folks. I am attempting to follow the "Get Started with Clojure in VS Code" video, and having an error: Error: Unable to access jarfile .calva\deps.clj.jar

Jeff R. Allen13:01:59

Well, I removed the temp directory, and closed all the windows, and tried again, and this time it asked "make a new temp dir and download again?" and I said yes, and then it worked. šŸ¤·

pez14:01:05

Iā€™m so curious what you had in your logs there! šŸ˜€

Jeff R. Allen21:01:35

Sorry, I'm too much of a newbie to have known what to look for and where, I was just struggling to get anything going at all, so the evidence is lost. I'm happily learning Clojure now, so no harm done.

pez21:01:03

Yeah, not blaming you at all. Itā€™s just that when someone is taking his first steps of Clojure, some will just drop it at a hurdle like that. I want to figure it out so I can fix it. šŸ˜ƒ In this case I think you got a bit unlucky, deps.clj was updated yesterday and then it seems Calva failed when downloading the new version for you. Iā€™ll have to take a closer look at how we handle that.

Thanks for the heads-up about the off-by-one error in the instructions, btw!

Morning

Good morning. Trying to log my daily work, privately, just in a text file, to better remember, and maybe feel less like I'm not getting anything done (certain aspects of my workplace can have that effect...). Anyone here do something like this? How's does it work for you?

seancorfield18:01:36

I've been using Logseq pretty effectively for that sort of stuff, plus all sorts of notes about stuff that I'm thinking about. I love how easy it is to get everything connected and cross-linked.

seancorfield18:01:48

And Logseq is local files (markdown) so you can git control and/or back them up easily and read the notes outside the app -- and it's built with Clojure/Script and you can write custom queries in Datalog šŸ™‚

I used to have a collection of md-files, recently moved to Joplin (because encryption and sync). Basically for the same reasons: to remember discussions, decisions, and just for the fun of browsing through the history. Too bad the data produced by this approach has at most as much useful structure as you put effort into writing the contentsā€¦

reefersleep10:01:57

@U04V70XH6 local markdown files is what I'm doing now, so I might as well give Logseq a gander! Cheers for the tip šŸ™‚

reefersleep10:01:38

And are you generally satisfied with your own work, @U4E39A29Y? šŸ˜„

reefersleep10:01:55

I started at 0, so I'm already impressed with myself šŸ˜„

simongray11:01:29

Synchronisation

synthomat09:01:57

@U0AQ3HP9U generally satisfied šŸ˜„ I realize how much context switching I have to do daily during my work, so in the end I can hardly remember that I finished so many tasksā€¦

reefersleep10:01:48

Same here, part of the reason I started doing it myself. At times, I feel like all I ever do is context switching šŸ˜„ I forget the work I actually did, and that's the good part! So, making more of an effort to remember the good part šŸ™‚

teodorlu18:01:57

Morning šŸ™‚ Iā€™ve done this on and off since 2017. Now itā€™s become a ā€œget unstuckā€ tool for me. If I donā€™t know what to do, I sit down and write. ā€œWhatā€™s important?ā€ is one question to answer. Previously Iā€™ve also enjoyed answering ā€œintent, relationships, actionsā€: What is the intention behind this work? What relationships with other people are involved? What actions are necessary? For organization, i often use a yearly org-mode doc with major headings for each day. I also have a small hometemp script, which is:

hometemp () {
	mkcd ${HOME}/tmp/temp-$(date "+%Y-%m-%d")
}
Then I have somewhere to start when I need a place without wanting to name a place.
