We’ve just run our sixth edition of the Atomic Games! The original version happened way back in 2015. For each edition, we’ve built a game board with core game logic. Games participants write AI players that compete against other teams’ solutions. We’ve always written the game boards in Clojure, and...

As the complexity of Cloud Computing is reaching clouds, we, as developers, are posed with problems that never existed before; deployment being one of them. Of course, one could always go for Virtual Private Servers (VPS) or (opting for more modern means) cloud services such as AWS, Azure or GCP. Su...

Back in April 2013, I created and published a custom Kindle dictionary for the book Dune. As far as I can tell, my Dune dictionary was the very first custom Kindle dictionary for a fiction book.I created it because I was reading Dune for the first time and there were many unfamiliar words. These wor...

This page contains a literate-programming exported version a definite-integral package I built into SICMUtils, a Clojure(script) based computer algebra system based on Gerald Sussman's scmutils.

When learning to code, developers-to-be are usually taught to code vanilla software. In the workplace, however, developers use many tools to speed up their coding. Common tasks like testing, running various scripts, and programming environment control are just a few examples of when an extra tool co...

The Resurgence of Functional Programming track at QCon Plus featured several experts describing how functional programming makes developing software a joyful experience. They also told why and how object-oriented languages such as C# and Java are evolving by becoming more functional.By Thomas Betts...

I'm trying ...

There's been some fascinating discussion and debate recently about the modern web, and whether what we often take for granted as "the right way to do things" is really better than "the old way". A lot of this has been centered around Hey.com, the new email service that's taking the world by storm.No...

In 1977, John Backus presented an algebraic vision of programming that departed from the von Neumann fetch-and-store semantics. This seminal paper has influenced functional programming in many ways. In this episode, I read excerpts from and comment on John Backus's 1977 Turing Award Lecture paper Ca...
