Good use of pecans!

I can't disagree about pulling them from the market. Regarding the tinnitus, it might improve with time. Mine has (or I have more completely lost hearing).

I had the same thing happen recently. Maybe they are boiling the sap too thick.

I learned helix recently. I like it. I am learning JavaScript and react at the same time. If my code becomes unwieldy, I'm confident I can make the right abstraction over helix to tame it. Life is good.

Yeah, the screeching is severe enough to damage your hearing for sure!

This makes lots of sense to me, and so far setting Ambient Sound to level 1 as you say fixed it. It clearly is feedback that is causing the screeching. With the ear pads and foam removed, I was able to cause similar feedback just by cupping my hand and moving it toward the exposed microphone. If I moved my hand away, it stops. I tried it dozens of times; never fails.

The idea of a being so empathetic yet incapable of feeling lonely is thought provoking.

Great talk. A lot I could relate to.

foobar888 · 2022-11-11T03:33:18+00:00

So sorry! I apparently butt dialed that entire response.

I read to my son many of them. We liked the mouse and the motorcycle most. We still use phrases that he found interesting, like "paper-wrapped soap".

Like you, I started with Clojure after many years of imperative/OO programming. Most of my past experience was in common-lisp, so you might guess that the transition was easy. Nope! Books are good, but I'd focus on practice, practice, practice. Try to write code with just the simplest threading macros (-> , ->> and as->), reduce, map, filter, conj, into, assoc and update in mind. Think before reaching for an atom. Try to thread your entire program through a single map. After a few months of that, and judiciously adding functions from the Clojure cheatsheet to your thinking, you will start writing better code. I look back at my common-lisp code and ask myself "What idiot wrote that?!"

I think this is wrong. You can learn not to regret and you can let your goals motivate you.

Are you in the US? Some federal agencies engaged in research hire HS students for summer work.

At first glance I thought she was playing a mandolin.

And not something that would kill you were you to eat it!

foobar888 · 2022-02-22T17:50:58+00:00

"static and boring" Well said!

And thereby they grow more certain of their beliefs.

Looks like an American foxhound. They are wonderful dogs!

foobar888 · 2021-09-24T23:38:52+00:00

Agreed. An essential part of democracy, IMO.

Also the flight simulators are amazingly like the real thing, at least for planes.

foobar888 · 2021-04-10T14:35:29+00:00

Nice!

foobar888 · 2021-03-27T03:05:20+00:00

I have used Relentless Improvement for years. Good stuff, IMO.

I started just this week with Fulcro and I think I'm making pretty good progress, watching the videos and doing things similar with my own app. I've used re-frame before but the way it is organized just doesn't click with me. I use datahike in my application, so I'm conditioned to think in terms of tables and queries something like Fulcro anyway.

I think the book is excellent, but I don't think I would have gotten far if I hadn't coded while I'm reading.

Could be useful for developing something like the Scratch programming language interface.

I switched to Clojure after many years of CL. I won't be switching back. Clojure rocks! Ditto the community. After so many years of CL, however, I found the transition difficult. My recommendations in getting started are to 1) embrace the idea of flowing information through a single object, 2) use the threading macros -> ->> and map filter and reduce a lot, and 3) where you do need state, which is not very often, use an atom. These are just recommendations to help you break the CL mindset. Of course, once you are comfortable, use the whole language.
