The Bay Area #Clojure User Group on Meetup is about to be shut down.

It was founded on 8th January 2009.

It has 1741 members.

Don’t remove the posts, but just subtly change them, introducing bugs

How do you deal with people who are in tech, publish a blog/have a tool/a newsletter, but push their political views down your throat?

Do you just selectively pick the useful aspects and ignore their political views or do you just completely ignore them?

@pkal that discussion about clojure-mode on Emacs mail list, was truly surprising.

The suggestion, to include clojure-mode by default, made no sense.

What was shocking is that Emacs core devs were shocked that nobody (who writes Clojure) wanted the mode bundled in Emacs by default.

It seems to me that there is a whole world of Emacs out there, that Emacs core is unaware of.

With Emacs “distros”*, people aren’t only unaware but they don’t care about Emacs defaults.

*doom, spacemacs…

@technomancy hahahaha

@technomancy I was just voicing my concerns, because it seemed like he was getting approval for this on Twitter

@technomancy I agree. He's like an anti hype

Is uncle Bob Martin the hype Clojure needs?
