much gratitude to the makers of the Clojure documentary, and to everyone it was talking about.... which is all of you! it is truly super inspiring. I reckon maybe it's time to rewatch some talks (again) 😄

really beautiful! felt very wholesome, thoughtful and heartfelt—all the things that are not that easy to find in “tech” lately

Cult.Repo did a fantastic job! I truly enjoyed working with Emma Tracey, Cormac Dunne, and Joey Bania.

Wow i can just add to all of that. I watched it just a few minutes ago and i'm once again just blown away about the community and what the entire community got through. But i'm really thankfull for all the stuff that was pushing clojure back from beeing the next hype train. Cause what we got out of it was an ecosystem that is the most mature and stable ecosystem i ever saw in my entire career / life. I appriciate that so much it feels like beeing grounded to the idea that simple ideas need time to develop and that you can't just shot ideas out to just realize that it wasn't that great. Furthermore if you look at spec and all the stuff that is still in alpha. I guess the problem there is that we still don't really understand what we try to solve and how and in a simple way. At least all other stuff that is stable now is exactly what i talked before we understood our problem and build a solution for it thats why those apis are stable. What i wanted to say is that clojure is an astonishing ecosystem with beautifull people and i mean also the once that are not part of the documentation. Thank you!
