Lost in Lambduhhs Jordan Miller

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.

Thank you to sponsors: Clojurists Together, Nubank, Zane Shelby, Dustin Getz, Robert Randolph and superuser



Hey Friends! We're back!

email `heylilpodcast@gmail.com` 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. The conversation concludes with a discussion on the balance between providing hand-holding and catering to experienced users.

🚨 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.
