To work on this problem check out https://workonclimate.org/ Founded by two ex-Google employees.

From their About: “Work on Climate quickly built the world’s largest and most successful community of its sort – with tens of thousands of members around the globe, thousands of whom have found climate jobs and started companies”.

Not affiliated but I ran into this initiative recently.

I'm working on AppQuery, a Ruby gem that makes raw SQL for Rails more intuitive https://rubygems.org/gems/appquery.

You put queries in a file `app/queries/foo.sql.erb`. Casting works and can be customised. There's ERB-support for parameterisation, with helpers like order_by and paginate.

The gem can parse and rewrite CTEs which allows for 1) rewriting the query such that basic queries (first, take, count etc.) are performant (Rails does `resultset.count`). And 2) given your query contains CTEs, it allows to write tests per CTE.

Not surprised as Clojure is boring tech: slowly evolving with a big focus on stability (ie backwards compatibility).

Meanwhile: the core team has been extended the last couple of years. Also this summer NuBank (the company behind Clojure) announced the first 'Clojure Developer Advocate'. Their role will be to "focus on ways to support the existing Clojure community and grow the community through outreach and development."^1

EDIT: wording.

There’s one currently on the frontpage.

Summary via tldw.tube: The video explores concerns about the integrity and trustworthiness of scientific research, particularly in the field of physics. The speaker shares a confidential email received years prior, wherein a colleague expresses worries about the impact of critical publications on the community, suggesting that some researchers prioritize personal gain over public accountability.

The terms are warranted as that's what the data shows: the charts in figure 1 clearly indicate that we are in 'uncharted territory'. Also as one of the charts 'may indicate a tipping point [into a new fire regime]', it seems justified to say we ran out of time to do something about it.

"Solving Problems the Clojure Way" by Rafal Dittwald at Clojure/north. Comparing a simple JS cardgame the imperative, OOP and functional way.

In my experience the type of exercise matters a lot: after my average cycling training (50-100km) my legs are hurting but I feel more energetic and awake. Mostly it results in staying up later than normal.

Last time I played with tmux (v 1.1-1) I found the following behavior a bit of a show stopper:

* start tmux from ~/project1: windows created all start in path ~/project1

* start tmux from ~/project2: first window has path ~/project2 but subsequent windows have path ~/project1

haven't had time though to check if this is a (known) bug
