Two stories about ChatGPT Two days ago I tweeted : I confess. I’ve succumbed and subscribed to ChatGPT Plus. Eufrasio asked me why, so I replied It’s great for translating code from one programming language to another. For example, I had a version of Gbloink! running in the browser, I wrote in CoffeeScript 10 yrs …

Starting a ClojureScript Project in 2022
I needed to start a simple ClojureScript project in 2022. And it was a faff. I love Clojure. But creating projects has become much harder because of so many different ways to do it, different and changing tools, and outdated online documentation. So tl;dr: I seem to have found a solution that works for me. …
Why I love Clojure
Here’s some code I’m writing for my day-job. I have an iterator of IScoreObjects (basically things that live on a musical score or timeline).I want an iterator of only the Notes. Where Notes are one of the things that implement the IScoreObject interface and can live on the score. Here’s my code. import java.util.Iterator; public …
Patterning in Cardigan Bay
Finally done something I’ve been meaning to for a while, and brought Patterning into Cardigan Bay.That means we now have a :patterning card type which can contain Clojure code (it’s interpreted on the server using Babashka SCI) that renders patterns as SVG embedded in pages.See this example page on ThoughtStorms which has patterns embedded in …
The Future of Lisp
Another rescued Quora answer to the question : What is the future of the LISP programming language? I’m writing this answer as an unabashed Clojure fanboi. The second of these advantages is syntax for data-structures. (defn f [x y] (the int (+ x y))) That’s it. You’ve typed the expression (+ x y) as having …
Cardigan Bay Screenshots
I’m going to do some video tutorials shortly. Just need to find a decent mic and a quiet space. In the meantime, some recent screenshots of Cardigan Bay
Cardigan-Bay Early 0.0.3
Cardigan Bay development is slow, but continuing.

Carp: A statically typed Lisp, without a GC, for real-time applications.
This looks rather good. Carp: A statically typed lisp, without a GC, for real-time applications. It is what it says. It’s a Lisp, with some inspiration from Clojure in terms of syntax, that’s designed for writing fast native code like games and … (w00t!) audio applications. Etc. It actually compiles into C. It takes some …

What is Clojure about?
A nice summary : What is it about? – Community Center / Watercooler – ClojureVerse
Welcome to Cardigan Bay
Cardigan Bay is my new wiki-engine written in Clojure / ClojureScript. I’ve been working on it for about three months, and it’s a long way from finished, but now interesting enough for people to start playing with (and hopefully giving me some feedback on). The goal is for this to be the new engine behind …
