As mentioned in their 2013 PyCon talk, the problem with HTM (at least with current designs) is the hard limits to transaction sizes. They are attempting run run entire interpreted …

It also allows for multiple copies of the same application to run on the same VM. That is a nice dev feature.

If you're interested in lisp without the JVM, there's always ClojureScript. Once the JVM compiler is up an running it compiles most of my ClojureScript code in about 1 sec, and the…

Author of Mjolnir here. There's some major updates going on in the "datomic" branch. If you're thinking of using Mjolnir in a project, you'll want to keep an eye on that branch ove…

sadly, this doesn't seem to support any sort of multithreading. Even something as simple as swap! isn't thread-safe in this implementation. So that kills one of the main reasons to…

I would go a step farther and say that OpenDoc should be in a separate interface from SaveDoc.

Use it every day and you'll probably think different about it. (baz 33 (bar 12 (foo 33 (+ 1 42)))) Is way harder to read than: (->> (+ 1 42) (foo 33) (bar 12) (baz 33))

agreed, it has to the the worst looking site I've seen in awhile.

+1 Since I stopped writing C# code in Visual Studio, I software development doesn't make me nearly as angry as I used to be. Now I write Clojure code on OS X, and couldn't be happi…

Perhaps it does place oriented OOP poorly, but it actually has an extremely nice logic engine (see core.logic).

This is why I use Clojure. I can do Functional, OOP, logic, or any of the dozens of other programming styles in one language. And since it's a lisp I don't have to worry about havi…
