Anyone remember the website of software stories/koans, written in the “ancient Chinese parable” style where at the end there’s some silly contradiction and the student is enlightened?

> The square root of a cube is the same as the cube root of a square. In other words, it is the number that, when cubed, gives the original number. For example, the square root of 8 is 2, because 2 x 2 x 2 = 8. The cube root of 64 is 4, because 4 x 4 x 4 = 64. Does this clarify the concept for you, or is there anything else I can help with? Sometimes I'm very impressed with ChatGPT, othertimes, less so.

Anyone using github co-pilot with clojure and finding it helpful ?

brushing up on css led me to this article: https://css-tricks.com/css-is-a-strongly-typed-language/ which links to this article: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strong_and_weak_typing which has this talk as a reference: https://vimeo.com/74354480 which is fantastic! Really refreshing take on the static/dynamic discussion and will be appreciated by clojurians from the description: > This talk—given by an experienced polyglot programmer who once implemented Hindley Milner static type inference for “fun”, but who now builds large and successful systems in Python—explores the disconnect between the dire outcomes predicted by advocates of static typing versus the near absence of type errors in real world systems built with dynamic languages
