Does anybody else also face very frequent 503 errors from clojars?

What are the reasons to learn Common Lisp for a Clojure(Script) programmer (mainly Web Developer) today ?

For web dev, I would choose Clojure over Common Lisp personally. Why? Tapping into good ecosystems on both the JVM and JavaScript.

So I have free credits for a Manning book because I guess the Get Programming with Clojure book was cancelled. Any recommendations for what I can pick up? I have the 3 other Clojure/Manning books already and Eric Normand's new book Grokking Simplicity. Maybe something to help my fundamentals?

Clojure, The Essential Reference

Yeah I have all the Clojure specific books already. I was thinking something like this, maybe? https://www.manning.com/books/algorithms-and-data-structures-in-action

@chase-lambert If you're looking to learn a new language, Rust in Action is pretty cool

although it's probably better as a second Rust book, after the free introductory one

I actually have that one too. Haha. I'm being difficult.

I like Clojure as my main language and then Rust has been my little hobby, systems programming exploration language. I like it but I always run back to Clojure with joy.

Same here 😉

I'll probably try out that Algo and DS book. I guess I was just curious if there happened to be a classic general software engineering book from Manning out there that is often recommended

So what happened to the Clojure book at Manning? Pivoted?

Not sure, they gave kind of a boilerplate announcement that it just wasn't going to make it to the finish line. It was one of their MEAP early access books. The other Clojure books on Manning have been great. I want to really start diving into this Essential Reference one.

This could be good: https://www.manning.com/books/math-for-programmers

If anyone has read that and wanted to share their opinion on it please share, I was thinking about reading it.

is it me, or did GitHub fall of the internet again. Not even getting a unicorn today

Speaking of Manning (which is down for me at the moment) - are "Introducing Data Science" and "Build a Career in Data Science" any good for someone that already knows what a gradient descent and a loss function are?

I don't know where else to ask this and I've already opened an issue on Github some time ago. I'm having trouble getting the minimal oz sample to run; the server starts but something happens to the websocket connection and I can't send any visualizations from emacs to the browser. did anybody experience something similar and / or can help? Would be super grateful. 🙏 Sorry if this is not the right place to ask
