Clojure and AI agents - an experience report Disclaimer: No AI was involved in the writing of this post.

We've started slowly introducing Clojure at Nosco, and I'm very excited to share some first impressions on what it feels like to start with a pretty legacy Node.js codebase and sprinkling some Clojure on top.

After a few weeks of investigating various approaches to web development in Clojure, I'd like to write down a summarised overview to help me nail down some thoughts and potentially make a few decisions in the near future.

In this post I want to give a very quick tour of Clojure.

As I've mentioned before, I have found the Advent of Code puzzles to be very useful in learning a new language.

I received a customer request about some remote-controlled machine not responding as it should.

On my 25 days of Clojure post I made a passing reference to Clojure needing an "apropos" command: The Clojure documentation can be hard to decipher, and the clojure.core namespace is huge.

I recently tweeted: Diagnosing a process leak (that manifested as a memory leak) using the remote console - fantastic!

For the past couple of years, I have tried to learn and evaluate one new programming language each year.

I have recently had a minor enlightenment about what programming languages I want to use in my daily work, and I would like to capture them for the benefit of new and experienced programmers in search for an addition to their toolkit.

Here's a cool trick I came up with (pretty sure it's been done already, but I've never heard of this particular one) that makes it really easy to add list or table filtering/searching in a "boring" web application (i.e. one that doesn't use a SPA library…

As professional programmers, there's no way we can avoid doing some web development in the course of our careers.

My name is Orestis Markou, and I have been a professional software developer for some time now.

I have been consciously limiting my online presence for the past 5 years.

Writing your first Ember app, part 1 Get started Install ember using Ember CLI -- Ember is similar to Django by making a lot of decisions for you Create a new project by doing ember new mysite -- Like Django, Ember has helper tools to kickstart a project.

Ember.js is moving a lot, but since the adoption of JSONAPI for the default "wire protocol" with back-ends it's easier to keep up.

Old-school web applications were easy to create.

In the spirit of the wonderful "Twisted web in 60 seconds" posts, I'm going to contribute here a small post about the Twisted reactor and Deferreds.

Today I worked with William on the promising ironclad project which allows you to use CPython extension such as numpy under IronPython.

Introduction I have been using git-svn successfully for some time now, and I am generally pleased about the productivity improvements I get.

I've created and released a small Vim plugin that will try to mimic TextMate's behaviour to insert the closing pair of quotes, brackets, parentheses, braces etc.
