The conversation covers topics such as the rebranding of Clojure Camp, Arne's hometown, his travels around the world, his love for tea, the differences between Europe and the United States, and his interests in cooking and gardening. Jordan and Arne discuss their shared interest in circus arts, specifically juggling and flow state. They talk about the European Juggling Convention and the meditative and mental benefits of juggling. They also delve into the topic of Taoism and its influence on their lives, discussing the philosophy of going with the flow and finding natural ways of being. They touch on the importance of self-awareness, mindfulness, and the potential pitfalls of narcissistic spirituality. They also explore the similarities and differences between teaching and leadership, emphasizing the importance of empathy and vulnerability in both roles. Heart of Clojure is a community conference that aims to create a holistic and vibrant experience for software engineers. The conference focuses on deepening the understanding of working in the software industry and building software for the world. It draws inspiration from conferences like Strange Loop and the European Juggling Convention, incorporating activities, workshops, and interactive sessions alongside keynote talks. The organizers aim to create an intimate and inclusive atmosphere where attendees can come alive and explore different aspects of their identity beyond being software engineers. Heart of Clojure encourages open source contributors and maintainers to propose interactive sessions, workshops, and contributor onboarding activities.
The conference will take place on September 18-19, 2024, in Leuven, Belgium.

SEASON 3 LETZ GO!
Thank you to sponsors: Clojurists Together, Nubank, Zane Shelby, Dustin Getz, Robert Randolph and superuser
Hey Friends! We're back!
email `[email protected]` if so inclined or you'd like to suggest a guest for this season.
Summary:
Hang out with me and my buddy David Nolen. We learn about his background in film and music, his interest in interactive media, and his journey into programming. We learn how and why he creates a musical environment at home. Plus the story on discovering Clojure and ClojureScript.He shares the challenges of maintaining an open-source project and we reflect on the masochistic nature of software development and the importance of experience in making pragmatic decisions. He expresses pride in his open source work and emphasizes the value of simplicity in tooling.

🚨 CFP for www.reclojure.org is officially OPEN! To celebrate, a few members of the co-organizing squad have mobbed up to spill the beans about what this virtual online conference is all about. Learn the mysterious origin story of this epic online event. Is there an association with the London Clojurians Meetup group? Why is it virtual? Will it always be virtual? Wait, there’s a theme? What does “Clojure Growth” as a theme mean? Who are these keynoters? Why are these keynoters?
Strap those earbuds in and hear the answers to these questions plus get a front row seat to hear about the manic behind the scenes processes: Chaos! Control! Clojure! Discord! Zoom! Oh my!!
Finally, we reveal exactly who we want to hear from and what we hope to see in this year’s proposals.

The code is not a lie. Join Chris B and I as we chat about how tf we have the SAME story? Cool! Starting with Linux in HS to doing some scheming to finally finding ourselves at the 2019 Clojure Conj. He opens the portal into portal which is the cool kids introspection tool that you always wish you had! Fun chat!

Joe and I first met at StrangeLoop 2021 and got along great due to our similar "Code is Data, Data is Code" soapboxes. A long time employee of Cognitect he has now struck out on his own to build https://www.crescent.app/ . We chat "crypto bros", crypto vs web3, choosing clojure and datomic as "weapons of choice", what is so healthy about fried chicken and his fabulous thriving dinner party culture they've built in the Nebraska tech scene.

Calva is distilled from CIDER both in spirit (trying to recreate the CIDER experience in VS Code) and de facto, using much of the same tech.The latter means that, like with CIDER, Calva's Interactive Programming support is made from the produce of The Orchard by proxy of cider-nrepl, a collection of powerful nREPL ops.Calva also has a strong static suite, much thanks to clojure-lsp and clj-kondo Many people are enjoying Calva together with Portal or Reveal both of which are very strong and delightful tools for working with, and visualizing, result structures.Calva treats beginners, wether with Calva or Clojure, with an interactive Getting Started REPL experience.The getting started experience includes an interactive Clojure guide, which is hosted as one of the drams in the Dram repository. The goal is to bring the guides to any Clojure editor.The guide is also available in Zero-install browser version: Get Started with Clojure

If you only ever listen to one podcast of mine, make it this. It's soooooo good ya'll. I still got my warm and fuzzies. Get ready to get up in your feels. This is some profound stuff and it’s not just hash-map hobbits ya’ll. Gratitude, suffering, growth, trauma, cats, hierarchy and coersion, toxic techbros, dolphin communication, the Clouncil, giving back to the community, cats and soo much more. There’s a bit of darker section that I should warn you about starting from minute 35-40.

Yukkin it up with some buddies! Yet again I crash the Defn Podcast party- and let me tell you a PARTY it is. This is a crosspost and was recorded a month or two ago while I was on the road traveling through CA. [for some context] At the time of recording I was posted up in a sorry excuse for a hotel room with SHAMEFULLY SLOW internet in lovely(?) Silicon Valley, CA. We talkin mentorship, music!, web-development, react native with Krell vs reactjs, tailwind, how to use STORYBOOK to quickly dev components, the experiences of working at vouch.io and so much more!! Enjoy!!!

In one of my favorite ways to find people, I (well, Ray from Defn Podcast) came across Kira sharing some clojure lovin thoughts on that little bird app. Hear our soothing voices talk a little bit of shit on javascript, a lot a bit a shit on ego driven development, the importance of work life balance, how to pull off digital nomad life, spec, testing and so much more! This episode was initially recorded a month or two ago (hey post processing is hard!) so fair warning some of the covid related thoughts are a bit out of date.

YASSS, MY MAN! This is one for the history books, my friends. I got to chat with one of my favorite clojureverse role models of all time: Eric Normand!!
We hear about his new book titled "Grokking Simplicity" published by Manning (discount codes below!!). We hear a little about his life and personal history in regards to how he got into creating instructional content (peace core? COOL!) He shares his thoughts illustrating key concepts that will help you to be a wise architect while planning out and developing a software project. Questions regarding asynchronous logic, mutable data (don't be scared my peeps) We discuss how to uncover the "universal truths" in your code base so you can write better code. We get to the bottom of the meaning of "domain driven development" and how to compares it to a more data oriented approach.Personally, I credit his instructional work with the basis of my entry into the clojureverse, and I know I'm not the only one. ENJOY!

Hey Friends, its been a minute! I produced this episode on the road, just in time for StrangeLoop! (which was an amazing time!) Thank you to Daniel Glauser who was a heckin great guest host to help me create this masterpiece.
I love acting as a platform for other people's awesome ideas and words but in this episode we get to know me a little bit more intimately as use this opportunity to speak my mind about some of the gender issues facing our industry. I promise, it's actually a really fun time :) Some things we are thinking about:
How do we get more diversity into the tech world?
How do we encourage these valuable groups of people to trickle into some of the more "niche" sections of tech?
How can having these different perspectives add to your team?
I don't pretend to have all the answers but starting the conversation is the first step, wouldn't you say?

CROSSOVER ! Collaboration mob cast alert! Ya'll I had way too much fun crashing "The Defn Podcast"- a veteran bringer of clojure content to your earholes. We mob interview Will Acton AKA lilactown about his ska t-shirt, BJJ, music, how he found the light of clj(s), react interop, his libraries helix and hx (and how they fit into reagent!). All the while keeping the constant stream of bad jokes and what is objectively probably way too much laughing for a "tech" podcast- but hey, hopefully you learn something!!!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f9K9ry9PPe4&t=1815s Heres a presentation Will gave about Helix that answers a bunch of common questions.
