Clojurians Log v2

I had luck with a paper, topic or speaker which directly correlated to a paper then I could just follow the chain of citations up and down. Examples: William Byrd and Karen, Nada Amin and reflective interpreters, SPJ and Haskell core to core pipeline

I'm not a scholar by any stretch but I'm very interested in the practical intersection and integration of research with production systems.

That being said, I have no issues navigating dense papers. It might take me longer than others but we can do it.

But my issue is that topic discovery has always been difficult.

I have thought about working backward from an interesting paper (eg. recently Milner's Process Bigraph paper) and reading the citations, citations of the citations etc.

there's also the Papers We Love meetups - good presentations and also pretty directly translates to a syllabus

Thanks, I'll give it a look.
