Re:Lambda Calculus Examples (2009) [pdf]

I have good experience with this book: An Introduction to Functional Programming Through Lambda Calculus https://www.amazon.com/Introduction-Functional-Programming-C...
It starts with the general rules of lambda calculus, then build up some basic functions (like in the PDF linked in this thread) and continues to build data types like Natural Numbers, List, String, Tree and operators for manipulating them. The book also explains about the evaluation methods as well as covering how ML and LISP uses lambda calculus.
Re:What the Dunning-Kruger effect is and isn’t (2010)

Related: This is an interview with David Dunning of Dunning-Kruger Effect. I find it highly entertaining and would recommend listening just for a few minutes in case it tickles your interest too. I've listed a couple of sources of the same podcast, just in case.

Off topic. I highly recommend the book written by the site's author
https://pragprog.com/titles/swdddf/domain-modeling-made-func...
Although it may look like just Domain Driven Design (DDD) and F# from the title. I think I've learnt a lot more from it. It changed the way I approached a problem and I somehow keep coming back to the book to get a refresher of the teachings in it. I suspect it is due to the influence of F# and functional paradigms that is also being shared in the book.

I would highly recommend JUNKERS https://shop.junkers.de/en/ For the mechanical options, they use either ETA or Miyota (Citizen), both of which are very good. And the build quality are excellent. Best of all, it doesn't break the bank to get their watches.

It comes with more than just the database. The package includes, but not limited to:
1. All enterprise features.
2. All nodes being managed by Citus themselves. All the upgrades or rebalancing will be done by them.
Finally, you could also spin up the community version, which is free but lack important enterprise features such as rebalancing the shards when you add more nodes to the setup.

Not them, but here is the link for their cloud offering https://www.citusdata.com/pricing
For other enterprise solution would require you to contact them first.

this video by Chas Emerick (co-author of clojure programming) also gives a good introduction to start with clojure, especially for people who uses eclipse.
