borkdude08:05:23

bvulpes08:05:44

bvulpes08:05:52

It surprised me yesterday that the Amsterdam Clojure meetup is only so small after all these years. Like only 10 people or so.

borkdude08:05:19

And most of the people there still use Java at their day job.

Maybe meetups are not really representative of the usage in real life. Earlier we already concluded that F# meetups are not that large and common either (none here in NL)

Argh, I change one type and I get one error. When I fix the error I get ten more errors. O wait, this is exactly the point of type checking right 😉

As the saying goes, new char, new error 😄

sveri12:05:19

new char = new character in source code, like, hey there is an error, I change something, ok, here is a different error

@borkdude: I hate these charts, what does bug density mean? For me it is not sufficiently labeled and open to interpretation
