Rich Already Answered That!

A list of commonly asked questions, design decisions, reasons why Clojure is the way it is as they were answered directly by Rich (even when from many years ago, those answers are pretty much valid today!). Feel free to point friends and colleagues here next time they ask (again). Answers are pasted verbatim (I've made small adjustments for readibility, but never changed a sentence) from mailing lists, articles, chats.

How to use:

• The link in the table of content jumps at the copy of the answer on this page.
• The link on the answer itself points back at the original post.

##### Replace 'example' anywhere with the name of your app and '*ec2ip*' with your ec2 instance ip
##### Set up your instance and make sure it's security group has ssh, http, and https open inbound and outbound
##### Don't forget to chmod 400 cert.pem

##### .deliver/config

Using OTP's observer (appmon replacement) remotely

$ ssh remote-host "epmd -names"
epmd: up and running on port 4369 with data:
name some_node at port 58769

Note the running on port for epmd itself and the port of the node you're interested in debugging. Reconnect to the remote host with these ports forwarded:

$ ssh -L 4369:localhost:4369 -L 58769:localhost:58769 remote-host

Erlang Tracing: more than you wanted to know

Rough Outline

• What can be traced?
• How can trace events be specified?
• "match specifications": twisty passages, all alike
• WTF, can I just use DTrace and drink my coffee/beer/whisky in peace?
• Trace delivery mechanisms: pick one of two

// Here is a proposal for minimalist JavaScript classes, humbly offered.

// There are (at least) two different directions in which classes can be steered.
// If we go for a wholly new semantics and implementation, then fancier classical
// inheritance can be supported with parallel prototype chains for true inheritance
// of properties at both the class and instance level.

// If however, we keep current JavaScript prototype semantics, and add a form that
// can desugar to ES3, things must necessarily stay simpler. This is the direction
// I'm assuming here.
