Clojurians Log v2

Life happened. 🙂 Some consulting work took up way too much time. I also needed to focus on keeping the current ClojureCLR up to date. And the biggest piece of that is duplicating all the deps.edn/CLI work that had not been ported. That work will be out for alpha testing shortly. And I got rather deep into the weeds playing around with alternative data structures for PersistentHashMap and company. I tried out so many alternatives. I wanted to see what would happen if I tried to go as 'pure' as possible. For example, null is used a flag in various places. What happens when you try to use null-free alteratives, such as option types? The results I got were not promising, but I wanted to see if that was inherent or a problem with my code. Way too much time lost wandering. At any rate, the consulting gig is wrapping up, the current ClojureCLR + deps.edn/CLI work is almost done, so I hope to get back to ClojureCLR.Next pretty soon. I'm glad you liked the posts. There will be more.

So, what happened to ClojureCLR.Next? I liked reading the posts about the rewrite but last entry is from February 18, 2023.
