Then read Simon Willison's breakdown and got the 'Aha!'.

I like what they've done, played with it and immediately started to plan how I'd try to implement it myself.

I guess this will be the way to go, for development setups instead of using a dedicated machine. Especially when mobile clients are created for Sprites.

Do you use it much and what for?

In particular Commodore tape player.

OK, it wasn't a Claude Skill, but it was done using Claude.

It'll right out refuse, citing the reason that the article is critical of the US.

Because of him, I installed a RSS reader so that I don't miss any of his posts. And I know that he shares the same ones across Twitter, Mastodon & Bsky...

I like the fact that it's just Bash

Ampcode have a CLI, which is their agent using Claude 4.

Google also came out with Jules a few days ago.

There's aider, with which you can use whichever LLM you'd like.

I'm pretty sure that there are others...

Is this something wildly different to Cody, your existing solution, or just a "subtle" attempt to gain more customers?

Especially since you might not be familiar with the new one.

Personally, I'm trying out things in VS Code, just to see how they work. But when I need to work, I do it in Emacs, since I know it better.

Also, with VS Code, just while trying it out, simple things like cut & paste would stop working (choosing them from the menu, they would work, but trying to cut & paste with the key shortcuts and the mouse, wouldn't). You'd have to refresh the whole view or restart it, for cut & paste to become available again.

You'd think that with a generative AI coding editor, they'd stay on top of it and make it work. But I guess that wasn't the case up until now.

Maybe with this acquisition that might change...

I know of UNIX parameters, with a single hyphen & a single letter, and GNU parameters, with a double parameter and a word. But a single hyphen and then a word: *mind broken*.

When I first saw that on Terraform, I was upset & conflicted.

OK, I know that Java also has mental parameter options like that ('-version', note the *single* hyphen followed by, gasp, a word!), but I just dismissed it as weird enterprise-ism.

Then I saw that this 'single hyphen + word' was an accepted convention for parameters, in the Go world & I was disappointed.

Glad that this package is fighting the good fight.

Currently https://clojuredocs.org is sort of the go to place. It wins due to Google algorithm.

I wanted to add the ability to vote on answers provided there. So that you have the ability to see the most relevant/popular answer, rather than the oldest.

Raised an issue on the repo, four years ago now. No response:

https://github.com/zk/clojuredocs/issues/222

And why do I mention Google algorithm? Because there was another effort that tried to create a (debatably) nicer documentation, but due to lack of Google traffic, it died. See: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8027119

For a more eloquent argument on its uses, see this blog post:

Sad to hear about your experience.

> A lot of abandoned libraries. There's not a huge ecosystem around it compared to golang

I found it to be the opposite. In Clojure you have Clojurists Together: https://www.clojuriststogether.org which funds people to work on Open Source libraries. And more importantly there is Clojure Commons: https://github.com/clj-commons which takes popular Clojure libraries, that are no longer being supported and carries on looking after them.

When I found popular Go libraries that have been abandoned, I asked in the Go community, if there are such initiatives, especially seeing how Google is behind Go. When people didn't understand what I meant, I pointed them at the examples above, from Clojure. To which their response was "TIL, Clojure, never heard of it before! No, we don't have such initiatives in Go."

Maybe the initiatives from Clojure Commons & Clojurists Together need more visibility for the newcomers to Clojure?

Not according to the international community and international law.

The majority of the UN recognised countries, 106 do not recognise it. Whilst only 94 do.

The same way that Afghan democratic government melted away, when the US troops withdrew, so will "Kosovo" go.

I was driven by an Albanian taxi driver abroad, who loves ethnonationalist Albanian politician Albin Kurti, but at the same time believed that Yugoslavia was amazing and that he wished that it never split.

I can use many examples like that that can hinder your NATO flavoured narrative.

It goes both ways.

Nothing happens.

Or what would happen?

Fully remote, mid-level Clojure(Script) engineers wanted.
