Impossible Programs - A Program that Ends Before it Starts Alice laughed.

An ode to programming in three parts I was with you in those days bright Connected terminals.

A secret message inside a 10,000 hyperdimensional vector We’ve seen in previous posts how we can encode data structures using Vector Symbolic Architectures in Clojure.

generated with Stable Diffusion Before diving into the details of what Vector Symbolic Architectures are and what it means to implement Clojure data structures in them, I’d like to start with some of my motivation in this space.

What if I told you that you could pick up a library model and instantly classify text with arbitrary categories without any training or fine tuning?

AI Debate 2 from Montreal.AI I had the pleasure of watching the second AI debate from Montreal.AI last night.

In this edition of the blog series of Clojure/Python interop with libpython-clj, we’ll be taking a look at two popular Python NLP libraries: NLTK and SpaCy.

libpython-clj has opened the door for Clojure to directly interop with Python libraries.

A new age in Clojure has dawned.

clojure.spec allows you to write specifications for data and use them for validation.

In this first post of this series, we took a look at a simple autoencoder.

In the last post, we took a look at a simple autoencoder.

If you look long enough into the autoencoder, it looks back at you.

Spring is bringing some beautiful new things to the Clojure MXNet.

I’m starting a monthly update for Clojure MXNet.

Object detection just landed in MXNet thanks to the work of contributors Kedar Bellare and Nicolas Modrzyk.

It’s holiday time and that means parties and getting together with friends.

This is an introduction to the high level Clojure API for deep learning library MXNet.

I’m delighted to share the news that the Clojure package for MXNet has now joined the main Apache MXNet project.

This is the beginning of a series of blog posts to get to know the Apache MXNet Deep Learning project and the new Clojure language binding clojure-package MXNet is a first class, modern deep learning library that AWS has officially picked as its chosen li…

I was 10 years into my career when I met her.

I wrote a blog post a while back about using a Clojure machine learning library called Cortex to do the Kaggle Cats and Dogs classification challenge.

In my talk at Clojure Conj I mentioned how a project from Oracle Labs named GraalVM might have to potential for Clojure to interop with Python on the same VM.

So, you have an idea for a fiction book.

Update: Cortex has moved along since I first wrote this blog post, so if you are looking to run the examples, please go and clone the Cortex repo and look for the cats and dogs code in the examples directory.

Clojure.spec is a new library for Clojure that enables you to write specifications for your program.

I sit next to my daughter, showing her programming for the first time. (+ 1 1) “Now press enter.” 2 “Pretty cool, huh?”

So you want to write a book?

Clojure.spec is an exciting, new core library for Clojure.

It happened again.

This post continues our exploration from the last blog post Why Hyperdimensional Socks Never Match.

The nature of computing in hyperdimensions is a strange and wonderful place.

Book of Software Miracles - Cover This 21st century illustrated manuscript was recently uncovered.

All programming languages are not created equal.

The last time I went to the dentist to get a cavity filled, I got a shot of Novocain as a local anesthetic to numb the area.

It’s that time of the year again for radars.

We humans are quite wonderful.

This is a continuation of the first and second conversations in which topics such as creating databases, learning facts, querying, and time traveling were discussed.

The following is a continuation of the first conversation which touched on schema creation and querying.

Human: Hi Datomic.

Sometimes I want to create something and I run into a limitation or constraint.

I made it to that magical moment when the Clojure book I had been working on so long was published and I could actually hold it in my hand.

Clojure’s partition and partition-all functions are very useful.

It’s that time of year for radars to be published.

Sure you may have done FizzBuzz before.

Denial: I am not really writing a book.

Recently, I switched from a traditional, “go to an office” job, to working from my home.

A quick tour of Clojure Transducers with core.async with Dr.

Sometimes I pause before talking to someone about Clojure code.

Nobody knows how it happened.
