Not sure if this is the right forum/channel for this or not, but I am currently searching for a Clojure job in Pittsburgh or DC and I wanted to reach out to everyone and see if they are hiring, or know about an open position. I also have experience with Datomic/Datalog, and Clojurescript.

@sveri: @mitchelkuijpers: Xodus is looking lovely so far.

bruceadams09:08:40

That LuxLang license issue discussion is great. Thanks for pointing it out.

sveri09:08:19

@bruceadams: agreed, it was the first time I understood at least some of the implications, I hate that license stuff, really

bruceadams09:08:07

@jtackett I'm in Pittsburgh and ran the Pittsburgh Clojure user group until it got folding into Code & Supply. I don't know of open positions at the moment (and my day job does not use Clojure). There is a #C05006WDW channel here. I suggest speaking up in #C05006WDW

cfleming09:08:19

Note that the GPL part of the discussion is largely moot, since it now seems pretty clear you can’t write GPL code in Clojure anyway

cfleming09:08:36

But the main point of making sure you think about the implications is very sound.

bruceadams09:08:27

Until I read that discussion, I hadn't realized that one couldn't write GPL code in Clojure.

cfleming09:08:17

@bruceadams: There’s been some semi-drama about it recently, there was a discussion on the ML and in #C03S1KBA2 as well

cfleming09:08:56

And a bit of a twitter storm after bodil said that was why she’d ditched Clojure.

bruceadams09:08:17

I guess I've been more successful than I realized at avoiding Internet dramas.

cfleming09:08:32

That is an excellent thing to be successful at.

bruceadams09:08:37

Anyway, thanks for the additional context.

@mitchelkuijpers: I’m using a somewhat different approach to yours, I’ll send some code when I’m done with it. But it works really nicely with nippy.

cfleming10:08:25

Using the ContextualEnvironment makes things very easy.

mitchelkuijpers10:08:20

@cfleming: I might be very interested in it, Ill open-source some stuff this weekend probably

plexus11:08:50

@bruceadams: supposedly you can use GPL with an extra clause to allow mixing with the EPL, but any other GPL libraries you include would also have to have that clause

@jtackett: Teradata are looking for people to do Clojure. There’s Datomic in the system, but it’s mostly about Hadoop
