Version 0.14.0 of the SICMUtils computer algebra system for Clojure(script) is out: https://github.com/sicmutils/sicmutils SICMUtils is a scientific computing system that offers: • Symbolic expression algebra and powerful simplification routines • forward-mode automatic differentiation • ODE initial value solvers • many different definite integral methods • a full, cross-compatible numeric tower (rational numbers, complex numbers, BigInt support) for Clojure and Clojurescript Interactive REPL use and Jupyter support works; the next step is to integrate SICMUtils into #nextjournal, and build integrations that let SICMUtils act as a physics engine for three.js and other libraries like this. Come say hi in #sicmutils 👋 ,and give the full reference manual a skim for an overview of the library’s features: https://cljdoc.org/d/sicmutils/sicmutils/0.14.0/doc/reference-manual

Cognitect and Nubank are Sponsoring Open Source Developers https://cognitect.com/blog/2020/12/15/sponsoring-open-source-developers

Should the links that say “sponsoring” be pointing to https://github.com/orgs/cognitect/sponsoring ? Looks like the sponsorships started today. So I’m guessing that is the case?

that page doesn't show anything to people outside the org as far as we can tell (we have a question in to github about that)

looks great for me though. wish you could see it! :)

maybe there is some checkbox somewhere to check, but we haven't found it

@jimmy What does that page show for you?

thanks! was just discussing w/ gh and seems like it's logged in vs logged out, to be fixed

That's amazing

This is great, and if all these sponsors are truly 6 figures, I'm quite happy about it and what it means for the future of the Clojure tooling and ecosystem.

6 figures is the total, not per person :)

but the idea is that if every company kicked in a small percent of revenue, these people could actually make a living making tools

6 figures is nothing to sneeze at. It can be 1e6, can be 5e6, too.

Ah I see, well I still totally appreciate the move, and it's an amazing gesture of support.

Most developers are being supported at $500+/mo initially

Do you accept nominations?

Sponsorship is not something to apply for. We make decisions on sponsorship based upon many factors.

If you want to sponsor someone, I encourage you to do so! :)

This is such a great move. The stance is super clear. It will be heard. Personally, I have been dancing and singing and hugging my family members for hours now. Still am as happy as when I realized Calva was selected for this. Thank you, thank you, thank you! ❤️
