jeffmax··on The Basis story: an accidental sync service in Clojure for iOS devices
Just curious, is the basis client/server available going to be made available? Thanks for the post.
jeffmax··on Scala – The Simple Parts

jeffmax··on Ask HN: Who/What will do for Prolog what Clojure has done for Lisp?
Has anyone looked at Pyke (http://pyke.sourceforge.net/)? It seems to combine some of the ideas from Prolog with the ability to use Python when necessary. We tried it and found it to work as advertised but the documentation was hard to navigate.
