Where to next @thomas?
Looks very pretty
oh to start your full time clojure job?
or did you start that this month?
I assumed it was to start the new job
War? I feel like I'm missing some important news
wasn't almost all of Europe affected?
Oh, the war
WebArchive
The Dutch wont consider WWII to be completely over until the Germans stop digging holes in their beaches. I learned this while living in Amsterdam for 18 months.
and yes, most of Europe was affected by the war, but Rotterdam got bombed at the start of the war (May 1940) and Arnhem was, of course, a bridge too far (Sep 1944).
Does anyone have any particular sexy uses of tap
that they use in their codebase? I've got something very trivial like this:
Heresy perhaps, but while I love core/async in principle, I have typically found that the situations where benefits outweigh the complexity are quite rare. Even the whole "back pressure" argument seems to be a case of moving a problem away from where the actual problem is. It is, however, entirely possible that I lack vision.
Now having spent a bit of time reading about it, I am a little baffled as to why they felt the need to add this new weird stateful thing to the core API š
Also, things like Conjure and Rebl knows how to "listen" for taps, and display that on a running system
Hopefully it will only get used for that kind of thing, because I can see people using this as some kind of weird internal event bus thing, which would be a nightmare to reason about.
all I've seen is it being using for it's intent - as a diagnostic tool/debugging tool
My scepticism probably stems from my fairly early Java days when the team I was on got their head around things like PropertyChangeListener
and took the perspective of a young kid coming out of a sex ed class, which is to say, "I didn't know about this before, but now that I do, I want to do it as much as possible!".
Which reminds me of this: https://www.smbc-comics.com/comic/the-talk-3
Haha, yeah posted that to a BBC news discussion thread recently on the Google story š
shadow-cljs uses tap> for the new shadow remote inspect feature which is shaping up to be super useful for debugging cljs
we use tap
so very much in our ruby codebase. I think itās a bit of an antipattern to complect your methods/functions with side effects though
where possible itās probably better to refactor and apply your side effects at the end of your return chain, in the case of logging build a report function or similar.
just putting that out there in case
well i have an easy choice - libdems were close-ish second to tories in my constituency last time round
easy choice for me too
I've never voted SNP before
first time for everything
Tories were secondish to snp last time, so got to keep them out
a while back i swore i wouldn't ever vote libdem again... i probably won't make such rash promises in future
ha well; overall I still think they did good thing from 2010-2015
looking at what happened since
there is an amendment being proposed to change that @thomas I wonder what will happen. š
that would be nice (not that it would make any difference for me of course) but good for EU citizens in the UK and vice versa
So very very tempted to stand. I'd lose my deposit. Even my wife probably wouldn't vote for me, but it would be kind of cool to say you were a candidate in perhaps the most pivotal election of a generation.
would you form your own party?
the clojure party
can you stand for the Monster-Raving-Loonies?
clojure on everything
clojure on brexit
Breaks-It Party
get @metasoarous involved, make a policy of deep democracy and Iād consider voting for you
deep democracy
sounds a bit sinister
I'm not worried about Brexit: https://www.wired.com/story/a-secret-space-plane-just-landed-after-a-record-stay-in-orbit/
I do find it interesting that they gave up on the space shuttle but are still flying these things
I guess they don't have any kind of human life support
so can save on a ton of weight/complexity
completely superfluous
