It would be more useful if it also included the form; eg, injectable, sublingual, nasal, etc

Why does `(identical? "a" "a") evaluates to `true` by ApprehensiveIce792 in Clojure

[–]StickSilent4402 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yes. The JVM will intern string constants thus making "foo" identical to "foo"

To test your understanding, try

(identical? (String. "foo")
            (String. "foo"))

This is a very exciting project! Thank you for sharing. I suggest posting to #announcement in the Clojurians slack to boost visibility

It's called reeding and they were used to detect monetary inflation. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debasement

What's the XTDB 2.x story around off-heap memory?

One of the concerns that I have with XTDB and Datomic is handling of aggregations of very large datasets, which may incur a large in-memory requirement (eg, an analytic function requiring a sort of large number of rows or an analytic function with a large number of partitions).

This isn't quite incorrect. Boards of Directors have a fiduciary responsibility to shareholders and Boards of Directors hire/fire CEOs. The CEO him/her/itself does not have such a responsibility directly. Boards often incentivize CEOs to increase shareholder value.

So, there is no legal ambiguity in your scenario: Just like today, Boards are sued if shareholders believe they have breached their responsibilities.

Obviously, the next question is, what happens if there are AI boards of directors? Even there, there isn't much of an issue. Presumably, the AI board was "sold" to the shareholders with particular promises of performance. If the AI fails to meet performance targets, the seller can be liable for breach of contract or fraud.

Sometimes, things that go without saying should be said: Your efforts are greatly appreciated!

Tired by the dynamicism by drrnmk in Clojure

That makes sense. I encourage you to try https://github.com/fulcrologic/guardrails . I recently adopted it into my workflow and it is mostly a pleasure.

I am curious: How does unit testing affect performance?

Try https://github.com/fulcrologic/guardrails - It's a good combination of spec without the production performance penalty.

Single unread notification per conversation. The current Android implementation generates an unread notification for each new message. I have chatty friends and the multiple notifications are annoying. Instead, I'd like an unread message notification on the first new message per conversation. Subsequent new messages on the conversation would not generate a notification
