I've been using AWS for quite a while now, and one thing that is as inevitable as death and taxes is dealing with paging. All of the APIs that return multiple items support pagination in some way, and anytime you write code that needs to act on all items, you need to handle fetching pages. My quest ...

I’m going to try to explain in the simplest way how clojure’s iteration function works. It’s hard to discern how it works by reading the documentation (atleast the first few times). One of the most common use cases for iteration is making paginated api calls. A paginated api call usually returns two...

Clojure is a high-level, functional programming language that runs on the Java Virtual Machine (JVM), and has access to all Java libraries. With ClojureScript, we can write Clojure code that runs in the browser, and everywhere JavaS...

Term rewriting equations and patternsFor a programmer, functions are the fundamental form of expression. Programmers write functions that transform inputs into outputs.\[f(x) = x + 1\] The inputs and outputs are complex data that represent something in the real world. I think about the inputs and ou...

Recently I’ve stumped upon a Reddit thread about defining a function that you can call a limited amount of times in Rust, with compile-time check, and I wondered if I can make the same thing in Clojure.Here’s the code:...

If you look at the number of GitHub repositories I’ve committed to since 2013, the number is decreasing. Same with number of commit...
