I've found templated queries(e.g. yesql) are far preferable for complex selects/joins/subselects and just can't imagine using the data structure dsl for such queries. One huge downside of dsl queries is that they NEVER s

How many minutes/seconds do you mean by fast? Can you point to guidance on how to make that happen because I am seeing 8+ minute re-deploy times.

Funny you mention that, I was just experiencing this yesterday in the flex environment. Re-deploy time for a 3 character text change on one page is 8+ minutes for each re-deploy. This is insane. Does anyone know how to speed that up?

I would say that the JVM has longer history of open source and a much larger ecosystem of libraries. If you're building a language on top of JVM you can take advantage of that. Also pretty sure JVM has better performance because of bet

Great to know it's on the roadmap. Once a GC is in place, WASM seems like the universal platform of the future for computing. Fast startup, efficient, and the same everywhere. We were supposed to get a world of hundreds or thousands of

Password protection is a pretty basic need and need not cost $45/month. Of course the role/team based stuff for $45/month makes perfect sense because those are only applicable on larger projects.

Not so much when you need a feature not included in free. And free is always subject to change.

If you were creating a new general purpose language language today would you target WASM? And what's the latest on garbage collection for WASM?

Does Event Sourcing make Datomic a moot point? Sure it can be your event log, but it seems like overkill.

So nice to hear someone else say this, and I feel the same about CLJS. And yeah WASM is looking pretty promising (threads/gc/efficiency), and a CLJ like language that targets it directly would be so interesting for the very long t

I feel most syntax themes are designed for syntax based languages and make the parenthesis far too dark/prominent and it's visually overwhelming. If you dial back the color of parenthesis and brackets to a lighter grey, the experi

You should look into Clojure Spec. It's a very nice balance of trade-offs for helping developers build correct software. While it uses a different approach than static typing, it seems a more natural fit for dynamic languages. Plus it&

Agreed. I suspect one current thing hurting adoption from the JS community is the very heavy JVM based tooling. With the Google Closure compiler now running on top of JS, there would seem to be a path for the CLJS(not clj) tooling to become

Clojure is unfortunately implemented in such a way that makes it extremely slow to load/start. It's really only suitable for heavy duty long running servers where you don't care about startup time or resource usage, the exact
