Re: [ANN] Flake 0.4.0: Decentralized, k-ordered unique ID generator

I also released Flake 0.4.2 today which includes an important bugfix where two competing threads could have caused duplicate IDs in certain circumstances as well as a new method for deriving timestamps. > On Jun 21, 2016, at 16:29, Max Countryman wrote: > > Brian, > > I think you make good p

Re: [ANN] Flake 0.4.0: Decentralized, k-ordered unique ID generator

Brian, I think you make good points here, especially with regard to the size of IDs. I’d also like to point out that while adding the process and thread IDs helps, it doesn’t eliminate the possibility of duplicate IDs: this is why it’s necessary to write out the last used timestamp in a separat

Re: clojure.string unexpected behaviors

Alex gave you a correct (but fairly short) answer. I’d like to expand on it a bit, partly in light of a certain recent blog post, partly because of a personal “hot button”… This is going to be along the same lines as clojure.set functions producing “garbage” output if you give them “garbage” in

Re: clojure.string unexpected behaviors

There are some comments at the top of clojure.string (http://clojure.github.io/clojure/#clojure.string) about expected usage. In particular, you should expect all clojure.string functions to accept CharSequence (a parent interface of String, StringBuffer, and StringBuilder and return the same (

clojure.string unexpected behaviors

Greetings, I was looking at clojure.string functions, and noticed that some have unexpected (especially for less experienced programmers) behavior on non-string arguments. For instance, 'capitalize' applies toString to its argument, effectively making it possible to pass any type, but with une

Re: [ANN] Flake 0.4.0: Decentralized, k-ordered unique ID generator

Bruno, I think the more you can reduce the chance of collision the better and the thread-local capability is a good idea, but in the process you've almost doubled the bits. For me anyhow, an ID need to be produceable at a reasonable rate (1 million a second per machine is good for me), have ne

tips on writing modern idiomatic code

Hi, What would you advise for writing-rewriting your Clojure code in MODERN idiomatic way? Using Kibit? Pasting your code samples on some review site? Asking help in IRC channel? Asking here? Reading some noticeable open source projects? Reading some new Clojure book? I ask about the latest
