I've been learning #clojure for the last 4 years. It's HARD

Here are the best platforms to learn clojure so you don't have to struggle 🧵

Looks like @Airport_FRA has a bit of a mouse problem

So, yep. I'm giving the opening keynote at @heartofclojure this year

Thank you to @plexus and the community for inviting and welcoming me 🙏

At @heartofclojure we have an Opportunity Grant to help people from underrepresented groups pay their way.

We could really still use some support for that. Any euro donated gets matched by us!

You can also still apply for a grant (ticket/travel/hotel)!

We are excited to announce that James Reeves @weavejester@mastodon.social is our first confirmed speaker for #heartofclojure 2024. He will be exploring the complex subject of dealing with legacy code, providing valuable insights and tactics. 2024.heartofclojure.eu/talks/living-w…

If you've ever asked yourself, "Do I belong here?" know you're not alone. Katja Böhnke asks us to open our hearts for diversity at #heartofclojure with her workshop 2024.heartofclojure.eu/talks/open-hea…

New video! A full walkthrough of Launchpad, the Clojure dev process launcher.

Launchpad has become invaluable tooling that we use on every single project. I hope people find it useful.

Belgian Clojure meetup next week Thursday (December 7) in BXL

meetup.com/beclojure/even…

Make sure to RSVP if you're coming, and get in touch if you want to do a talk (not here though, I don't check DMs here)

#belgium #clojure #brussels #meetup

Oooh, fresh new Overtone release dropped after 4.5 years of hibernation!

Thanks to @plexus for removing the cobwebs and turning the cranks.

Go tune up your parenthesis and get making beautiful sounds with Clojure...

[overtone "0.11.0"]

The @plexus handle is now for sale. Bids via DM. Serious offers only.

Much of Clojure development is peeling back layers and layers of Java libraries to get to the bit that actually matters, then wrapping that in a tiny API layer over plain data.
