Looks nice. Have you considered submitting pages like these to the clojure-doc.org site? I don't know if Michael Klishin would be interested in this material, but it certainly wouldn't be out of place there if he was willing to take it. There is a much shorter list of examples here that I wrot

Hi Aria, I read your post too quickly, so forgive me if I'm asking stupid questions or questions already answered in you're post. I'm building my own clojurescript/clojure stack of libraries to reach probably a couple of goal that are close or similar to the ones you have: - adhere to progress

So there are a few scheduling libraries around, I wanted one for cron-like job scheduling and my options were quite limited, there are things like clj-cronlike and quartzite but I found the syntax quite clunky and didn't like the central stateful scheduler idea. There are also things like at-at,

Hi all, I’ve just posted a blog post on the Prismatic blog about moving our web application from Node.js/Javascript over to Clojure/ClojureScript. A lot of the post is making the case for why hiccup-style templating using Clojure data structures is a great idea. ** * http://blog.getprismatic.

In earlier versions they were indeed retained forever; then there was a buggy WeakRef implementation in 1.2 that sometimes caused StackOverflowErrors; since 1.3 it has finally been stable. On Thursday, January 17, 2013 2:53:34 PM UTC+1, Tony Pitluga wrote: > > Awesome. Thanks Alan. I had seen ot

I had the same problem. It arose from one of the packages I had installed. I randomly uninstalled various packages, until the problem went away. (And because of this, poor package management is one of my peeves with Emacs.) On 17 Sty, 08:23, Tim Visher wrote: > On Thu, Jan 17, 2013 at 4:06 AM, J
