Morning
Shocked that I'm first to post this "morning"
Ha! Morning 😄
Was talking to a friend (an infrastructure guy rather than a developer although he has a background in AI) about @krisajenkins and I having a disagreement of approaches around modelling. Kris favouring data modelling first and me favouring behaviour modelling first. Was talking about Kris's idea to write a book on Data modelling in FP and me write a counter about Behaviour modelling in FP and my friend suggested we do one of those adventure books that used to be around when I was a kid which had two books back to back one published upside down to the other with two front covers. We could pick animals for covers that are enemies!
That's a really funny idea. I might buy a book like that
agile_geek: Sounds like an interesting idea/holy-war… What reasons are there to prefer doing one before the other?
Anyone read / know of Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs? https://www.amazon.co.uk/Structure-Interpretation-Computer-Electrical-Engineering/dp/0262510871/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1483054158&sr=8-1&keywords=Structure+and+Interpretation+of+Computer+Programs
Of course - it’s a classic!

Saw it mentioned in this post. Really good article
yogidevbear: It’s also available free online along with the original classic Sussman/Abelson lecture series.
I highly recommend all of it
Yeah I found that too
Will have to read it after I finish Living Clojure
The stuff on the metacircular evaluator is perhaps amongst some of the greatest lectures & chapters in computer science
as introductory materials on the theory of computation goes anyway
Lecture 7A at about 4 minutes in is pure class: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0m6hoOelZH8
