Clojurians Log v2

Good Morning!

I believe the U3417W is no longer in production, superceeded now by the U3419w. I know a few people who have these (the U3417w) and love them

☀️😎☕️

I collected my monitors from the office yesterday, Dell P2419H, which I thought were pretty fancy, until I looked in here 😂

Monitor Envy 🙂 Hits us all 🙂

Good morining.

I personally prefer 27inch, 30+ is too big for me. I have also an ultrasharp usbc 4k bla bla bla, dell is hard to beat for these

Hello world! (Feeling Eurocentric today)

Good morning!

Vega uses SemVer, SemVer is broken, guess who had to spend two days rewriting their UI charts into something different, hoping next time it's going to be better...

@orestis what did you move to?

Is that just a frontend / UI thing? Our FE team has to plan every migration to the next Angular / UI lib / Table lib release with a serious amount of work. Did the JS community just accept that stuff breaks every 3 months?

I used visx @otfrom - no idea about the stability but at least I get to manipulate an svg instead of using a Vegas obscure and annoying data language :)

@javahippie I’ve not accepted it, I’m still at the anger phase 😂

Morning

So many puppies, this is truly the best channel

Does anyone have any suggestions for a Chat-as-a-Service? Ideally with an SDK.

@thomas - This one looks interesting... https://getstream.io

And this whole platform solution has had me interested for a while: https://matrix.org

Anyone prepared to say “this one is best” for a Clojure / Clojuric library for reading data from Parquet files?

yes, the first one looks good.

I think http://tech.ml.dataset has stuff for that. And if you are doing interop w/python and R then they have arrow even more speed IIUC

https://github.com/techascent/tech.ml.dataset

Ooh thanks @otfrom

It looks to be a very powerful library in some other ways as well - can’t believe I haven’t come across it before, but thanks for the hint :-)

that and tablecloth seem to be where the scicloj community are going

👋 @mccraigmccraig

hey @otfrom

@raymcdermott the channel is working through the cute list, first babies, then puppies, likely cupcakes next 😉

Morning

hey @mccraigmccraig You’ve tripped over to the dark side? 🙂

hey @jasonbell - i clearly haven't been paying attention - i didn't know #clojure-europe was even there!

“Listen carefully, I shall say this only once….”

Good to see you @mccraigmccraig

Dudes and dudettes, I made a shiny new thing in the spur of a moment :) https://github.com/borkdude/deps-infer

This week I found a good first usecase for Babashka. For my next travel I wanted a bike that has been out of stock for months, but not exactly. I realized that sometime a few units appear in stock. So I wrote https://gist.github.com/Em-AK/f195602db6722212f217b2fd4d4febd5 to : • scrape the shop page (as I found no API) • extract the stock information for my model and size • and trigger a desktop notification if in stock Then I put the script in my crontab to run every 5 minutes. That was a lot of fun. Having the nrepl connection to the editor it felt very productive. Thanks @borkdude for this amazing tool 🙂 PS: yes, I got the bike! 🚴 https://contents.mediadecathlon.com/p1824558/kcd58dd29746c314441906e89c4020920/1824558_default.jpg?format=auto&quality=60&f=800x0

Reminds me of the story about the dude who hacked the coffee machine at the office https://github.com/NARKOZ/hacker-scripts

nice wheels. Good to talk more about in #brompton 🙂

(we rarely actually talk Bromptons, but do talk bikes and riding)

thanks for the tip

some of us in #brompton have never even ridden a #brompton

to be honest I had to google it :)

ha, they are a category-defining brand in the uk, but perhaps not so famous outside of the uk
