strange loop definitely one of the best conf, very high quality talks.
not much to blog about recently, more reading but less coding.
Wednesday, October 11, 2017
watched few strange loop 2017 talks:
- "Why We Built Our Own Distributed Column Store" by Sam Stokes
- "Zuul's Journey to Non-Blocking" by Arthur Gonigberg
- "Stop Rate Limiting! Capacity Management Done Right" by Jon Moore
I still like backend stuffs, I tried read books like Introduction to Machine Learning with Python, but I can't even survive the first chapter.
so unless there is a framework for dummies, I'm not going to waste my time to read machine learning books.
Rich Hickey leaves a long comment on this reddit thread: On whose authority?
I think this article is related too: Moving Forward by Letting Go
I didn't understand why core.async
is not part of standard library of clojure
then I slowly understand, I don't always need core.async
, and clojure already powerful enough, I actually don't want more features.
I don't want clojure to be like javascript (es2015/es6, es2016, es2017...) or swift (1.0
3 years ago, now already 4.0
), I don't have time for that.
slow startup is a big issue, seems more people are switching to clojurescript for that reason.
and it is unclear java 9 will do more harm than good to clojure (my lein
was broken after upgraded jave 9)
I didn't code clojure for couple months already, but I also slowly lost my interest in coding since then.

read a little bit of Python Data Science Handbook, the only thing interested me is ipython, like a repl.
videos of Clojure / conj 2017
I watched the keynote by Rich Hickey, he didn't have enough time for the talk, it contains too much information.
however, I guess I found the answer why he doesn't like pattern matching, more about it on clojure and haskell subreddits.
continue watching strange loop 2017, recommend these two good talks:
- "Zuul's Journey to Non-Blocking" by Arthur Gonigberg
- "The hows and whys of a distributed SQL database" by Alex Robinson
especially the distributed sql database talk (CockroachDB), so many good information in it.

watching more conj 2017 talks:
- Building Machine Learning Models with Clojure and Cortex - Joyce Xu
- Deep Learning Needs Clojure - Carin Meier
found a very good tool for api doc searching: DevDocs
java doc is under openjdk
using Application CDS (currently a commerical feature) can help clojure startup time:
looks like openjdk will have it soon
docker officially supports kubernetes: Adding Kubernetes support in the Docker platform
I read a little bit Docker Management Design Patterns, mainly about swarm
I think swarm is reasonably easy and good enough for most of cases.
graphsql for clojure:
- Open Sourcing Lacinia, our GraphQL Library for Clojure
- The Case for Clojure and GraphQL: Replacing Django | Cheesecake Labs
a good article on node.js: What you should know to really understand the Node.js Event Loop
that's why people said node.js runs better on freebsd, because of better support for aio on os level.
but that was few years ago, I'm not sure it's still true for now.
