Arity explanation: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arity From the blurb you quoted, it sounds like Lua doesn't check function argument arity natively, and fennel can. This means that…

Your point about underlying data structures is spot on, in my view. > Last quip to reflect on. "What's true of every bug found in the field? ... It passed the type checker. ... It …

> Are you familiar with the idea of "making illegal states unrepresentable", and "parse, don't validate"? I haven't heard of those concepts/ideas before. Thanks for linking the art…

> I wouldn't say it's "extreme", it's very normal and natural. You just stick everything in the types and it works. Ah, then I seem to be missing the point/intention. Thanks for il…

> Types validate whatever you use them to validate, which can certainly include what we usually call "logic". I'd love an example of this! I concede that I could be wrong on the po…

In OO languages (Java, C#, C++, etc...), and functional ones (F#, Haskell, OCaml, etc...) types do not validate the correctness of logic, they evaluate the correctness of data stru…

polylith ftw. Been learning some of the idioms of a polylith architecture using the `poly` tool + clojure. Really enjoying the idioms/practices it encourages.

Hey HN! This is a library I've been working on for Clojure. There are other libraries out there which do something similar, but they are to DSL-ish for my taste. Therefore, decided…

This is cool! Small and no magic.

To the OP (if you read this), I appreciate your candor, and you're not alone. Heal well. Heal with your family and loved ones. Lean into them. I sincerely hope you move onto greene…

its basically doing a react-ish way of UI changes without a full page reload (which thymeleaf would have done). Interesting, I missed that in my scan of the thymeleaf docs. I haven…

No worries, good questions! Taking clojure out of the equation and only looking at htmx, I would say it buys you is simplicity, and for most use cases that is the difference betwee…

Thanks for calling out some gaps in my explanation! Appreciate your perspective :)

After a quick glance, it seems like htmx would complement thymeleaf, if the web page/app you're writing doesn't need any sort of eager client (eager as in, treat and interaction wi…

I will say, the :advanced flag for the closure compiler has caused us some real headaches in production, enough to where we needed to migrate to only the :simple flag. The reason b…

Yes!

I'd say it's more complementary, from my experience. Alpine serves the purpose of local state and rendering logic for user interaction in a manner similar to a SPA, whereas htmx se…

Doing something similar with janet. Really does simplify so much, and being able to not have to worry about always translating json -> html via { insert SPA framework here } is a b…
