As a reminder, you don't need Git to use the latest development version of
Clojure. Just set your Clojure dependency version to "1.4.0-master-SNAPSHOT"
and add Sonatype to your Maven repositories.
Detailed instructions here:

I think Clojure is simple in design, complex in implementation. Dealing with
the JVM introduces all sorts of complexity. Dealing with *hardware*
introduces complexity. Perfection is only possible in the abstract.
Compromises are always needed, and Clojure generally makes good ones. But

This has been discussed at length in the past. The conclusion seems to be

Hello,
I think I've found a bug in Clojure's keyword handling. The keyword
function lets you create a keyword containing whitespace but, if
printed, the space isn't quoted or escaped, so if you print and then
read an error occurs. I would expect either the keyword creation to
fail or, when print
The bit-or arity seems to be limited to 2, rather than more, which
seems to disagree with the documentation. I get "Wrong number of args
(3) passed to: core$bit-or" for (bit-or 1 1 1). Have I misunderstood
this operation; shouldn't it take any number of values?
thanks

It isn't hard to write your own variation of pmap that does not do more
parallelism than you want, regardless of whether the input sequence is
chunked or not. I wrote one for a Clojure submission to the computer

Hi all,
This reply is to the thread, not Luc specifically.
Thanks everyone for your feedback and input.
I have pushed 3 commits:
1) Fixes the inconsistency between the hash function used by Clojure maps (was
.hashCode) and =. Thanks Paul for the report.
2) Changes core/hash to return the resu

The idiomatic solution is #(f % a1 a2 a3). I'm failing to see the issue with
“nice” and “expressive”, but that is most li
Hello Luc,
In all fairness I don't see how converting ints to Integers returned by
class methods would break the abstraction. If you start talking about
portability of Clojure code, then Long is as portable as Integer is. (In
general they are not.)
Could you explain your position on the fact that

Hi Chris,
Thanks for your startup-package. Can you please tell me if there is a
test_bot.sh for clojure. Can share if you already have one?
Thanks,

CON1 - I'm buying your argumentation about consistency in Clojure maps and
fixing them. Integer OBJECTS (as opposed to int primitive) should be
handle as objects consistenly, not as primitive values promoted to long.
CON2, CON3 and CON4 - No way, the current design choice is the good one.

Hey thanks Stephen and BG, and Jonas! Cool tricks I hadn't thought

I appreciate it!

I wrote some functions to convert a map into an ExtJS/Sencha Touch config
object. It converts nested list and vectors into javascript arrays.
