Exoscale, a cloud provider is also using clojure heavily. Pretty much anywhere where the jvm is a good fit, but given it’s a hosted language you can also use it to emit dart code or js and find it running on shoulders of others (like jank,

datalog is just the query language. For me there's no such thing as a datalog db, there are various db that uses some derivative of datalog for querying but that's it. To give you an idea, datomic has other ways to query your data

All the things you are mentioning would be nice to haves but frankly nothing prevents us to use these today already, either directly or via a bit of wrapping. Communication "style" and slow pace is frustrating sometimes but that&#

I am a swiss expat living in Sweden and I can confirm the trains are terrible over here. They are rarely on time, cancelations are very common and incidents can deadlock an entire region. I had to take cabs a few times at the last minute af

I was lucky to play UO from the beta days, when a lot of unintentional "features" existed. To name a few good ones: * monster gating. Opening a gate (portal) would allow people to travel from one place in the world to another by

It's a bit like nix but only for emacs. Modes are downloaded/built locally and versions pinned. From there you can put in version control your pin file and update/revert updates safely. It also guarantees you get the exact

I have been living not too far from Lund for 7 years and it's a mixed bag here. Sure in Lund it's full of expats, people are friendly and generally almost everybody speaks English. But 15km away in the country side it's quit

And soon clojure-dart.

There is also ClojureDart in the making. That one seems quite promising.

exoscale.com would be a good alternative as well

Nubank is also pretty big (clj/cljs/datomic). There's also Exoscale using clojure(script) extensively. Funding Circle and CircleCI also use it but I think "only" on the backend.

I build/assemble keyboards using qc switches, I own boards with "old" qc and some from this year (+ others with mx, kailh) . I can confirm they are much better now. Current switches have way less wobble and are far more rel

With very high fines if you were caught paying less or nothing, that helped a bit I guess.

Both models are/can be profitable, it's down to a personal (strategic) choice from the authors ultimately. There are many successful stories of proprietary dbs and also a number open sources ones in terms of profitability, ex: Ela

It "transpiles" to lua. So you can do anything lua does, run on any lua interpreter, use any lua library. So yeah, blazing fast, with a decent macro system and fixing some of the odd corners of Lua at compile time. It's reall

Right it's also gpl my bad. The fact you can download and build it doesn't mean much in general tho.

You'd be surprised, there are people in the community with some clever ideas to do that with a (fast)client/server model and change diffing (incremental builds), but it's super early days. With tools.deps and the need of some

Oracle didn't own java 20 years ago :) That said there's a lot of FUD around Oracle ownership nowadays but most of it is moot since OpenJDK is the fundation of Oracle's Java.

It's not all unicorns though. Performance can vary quite a lot from task to task, also compile times suffer a lot and you lose some dynamic features. So from what I understand it might be useful for clojure cli apps, but at this poi
