@Jakub: Thanks for your kind words. I'm definitely no "industry hero," but I hope Clojure devs of all levels start having more pair programming fun.
@Tim: Clojurescript UI programming being *way* out of my comfort zone, I learned quite a lot from you yesterday. So thank *you*. @Everyone: To clarify / reiterate: You do *not* need a plan, a project, or a specific problem. If you want to work through Project Euler, 4clojure, clojure-koans, the ClojureBridge materials, some other clojure tutorial, or just play it by ear, I am happy to try it out. --Leif On Tuesday, April 15, 2014 8:00:17 AM UTC-4, frye wrote: > > I just came from an office hours session, yesterday with Leif. > > This is good stuff guys, and a great way to learn and meet with other > developers.
