Virtual DOM and diffing algorithm

There was a [great article][1] about how react implements it's virtual DOM. There are some really interesting ideas in there but they are deeply buried in the implementation of the React framework.

However, it's possible to implement just the virtual DOM and diff algorithm on it's own as a set of independent modules.

Basecamp is under network attack (DDoS)

Basecamp was under network attack

The attack detailed below has stopped (for the time being) and almost all network access for almost all customers have been restored. We're keeping this post and the timeline intact for posterity. Unless the attack resumes, we'll post a complete postmortem within 48 hours (so before Wednesday, March 26 at 11:00am central time).

Criminals have laid siege to our networks using what's called a distributed denial-of-service attack (DDoS) starting at 8:46 central time, March 24 2014. The goal is to make Basecamp, and the rest of our services, unavailable by flooding the network with bogus requests, so nothing legitimate can come through. This attack was launched together with a blackmail attempt that sought to have us pay to avoid this assault.

Note that this attack targets the network link between our servers and the internet. All the data is safe and sound, but nobody is able to get to it as long as the attack is being successfully executed. This is like a bunch of people

Externs Inference

Externs Inference

Integrating third party JavaScript libraries not written with Google Closure Compiler in mind continues to both be a source of error for users when going to production, and significant vigilance and effort for the the broader community (CLJSJS libraries must provide up-to-date and accurate externs).

In truth writing externs is far simpler than most users imagine. You only need externs for the parts of the library you actually intend to use from ClojureScript. However this isn't so easy to determine from Closure's own documentation. Still in the process of writing your code it's easy to miss a case. In production you will see the much dreaded error that some mangled name does not exist. Fortunately it's possible to enable some compiler flags :pretty-print true :pseudo-names true to generate an advanced build with human readable names. However debugging missing externs means compiling your production build for each missed case. So much time wasted for such simple mistakes damages our sen
