Clojurians Log v2

i haven’t seen it remarked upon, but was the most recent F1 grand prix winner if a Nu colored race suit with Nu branding near his neck? Is that the Nu of Nubank, and owners/collaborators with Cognitect and Clojure? (i’m not sure of best terminology to use here so apologies if i clumsily got it wrong)
that's sick
Pretty cool to see the logo there and be a partner. But i’m pretty sure they are the reason for the color of the race suit. So really cool to see a win in that
yes, Nu is sponsoring Mercedes F1 and the drivers were in 3 different purple suits, different one each day. Nice to see Kimi pulling out the victory!
Miami (as our US hub) was sort of the feature race for Nu
i was wondering if yall were doing anything later in Austin or peraps at interlagos later this year
I don't know of any plans at the same level in the other races (most likely would be in Sao Paulo of course)
also in recent news, Nu acquired the naming rights for the new Miami soccer stadium (now Nu Stadium!) and are sponsoring Inter Miami CF https://international.nubank.com.br/company/nu-and-inter-miami-cf-announce-multiyear-partnership/
goodness. that’s some high profile partnerships
if any Nu people head to austin for the grand prix let us in #clojure-austin know and we can host and entertain!
Need to stick some Clojure logos on them, too 😉
Ah, that explains why Kimi starts so badly
This is so awesome, I had no idea
Posted to a bunch of programmer discords where I lurk... got to flex the flex. clojurian
Kimi has been much better at starts lately so... you're welcome, Toto.
