Re: F1 and the Sunday basically cancelled race. I don’t have old/exact TV footage, but I think I remember in the late 90s there were races that proceeded in pretty crazy rain/weather. Do you guys recall that?

raspasov03:08:04

Those two were pretty wild: 2003 Brazil https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=93QKt44OsIU 1998 Belgium https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R22nxVYLaBQ … I guess the rain does not look as bad as the one today. At least it wasn’t permanent rain.

Japan 76 was pretty crazy

raspasov07:08:29

Oh wow, that does look pretty much like Spa today.

raspasov08:08:20

I’ve only been really following F1 since mid 90s or so. But I’m aware that the 70s were a different time in terms of safety, etc.

bronsa08:08:11

to be fair the cars were a lot different back then

bronsa08:08:29

but yeah I can't imagine visibility being much better than spa today

bronsa08:08:44

different safety standards :)

raspasov08:08:55

For sure. I guess every decade or so, the level of what is acceptable as safe in F1 is upped significantly.

As I recall Adelaide 1991 was one of the all time craziest. Only Senna managed to stay on track (more or less lapping everyone - especially as nearly everyone crashed out). And even he called for the race to be stopped. Waaaayyy worse than yesterday. I think this was also the one where a rearview camera of a car picked up Senna coming out of a cloud so close and fast that he clipped his right front. Then proceeded to get around the track faster on 3 wheels than anyone else on 4.

Just ordered my first Mac with a M1 processor. Is there anything Clojure-related that won’t work / needs further setting up?

hkjels12:08:54

For me there was a whole bunch of stuff, but nothing for Clojure projects

hkjels12:08:40

if you’re into cljsrn there’s a couple of things, but also not on the clojure side of things

javahippie13:08:46

Thanks! Want to start with cljsrn in the next weeks, so timing is great 😁

If Docker is part of your workflow at all, that might also introduce some issues, as many images lack the platform support for M1.

javahippie12:09:09

Turns out, the Docker thing had quite a big impact. Need some Docker images for the project that won’t run on my laptop, so I spun up a Server in the Cloud, configured it with docker-machine as remote host and use that now. Not nice, but also not a dealbreaker, the rest of it runs pretty well

walterl12:09:59

I don't know an awful lot about the Docker M1 issues, but I do know that we recently changed our Dockerfile's adoptopenjdk/openjdk11:alpine-jre base to eclipse-temurin:11-focal for M1 support. 🤷
