Yep, wish JVM had it too, and no Scala doesn't count.

nats streaming worth checking out, or if you dont care about the streaming part nats/zeromq should be simple enough (simple pub/sub infra tools).

https://postwoman.io/ is my fav. Works on browser no need to download an electron app to make requests. VS Code also has a nice extensions too.

Thx this is, something I needed. Maybe add a proper filtering for VISA / relocation sponsorships?
Keyword search for Visa doesn't seem to work as expected. Remote filtering seems somewhat working tho.

I also agree with this. Some people treats languages like forks. It's just a fork why pick another it will do just fine right?
Well languages are more like artist tools I think. Of course you can draw a perfect horse with pen/pastel/charcoals as in writing really good i.e Chat Server with Java/Erlang, but each of them has different taste, feeling, community.
Picking a language is pretty different than picking a fork. And those all the way Javascript / Java lovers feels like 0.7/0.5 mechanical pencil users that tries draw everything with that. How about trying a brush? (Maybe I shouldn't have pushed this analogy this far)
No offense to, my fork lover friends.

Maybe more of the hype comes from the fact that its a Lisp. To get a feeling for the "magic" of lisp, I would suggest either watching SICP video lecs[0] or reading the book. I started learning lisp, almost the same time I've started learning programming with Java (college). Honestly I was thinking why they don't just teach us that, instead of Java at that time.
Also Clojure is created by a fairly respected dude (afaik) Rich Hickey. His talks and Clojure design decision articles on the site are really insightful.
Also this talk[1] also pretty good overview of different paradigms and `Clojure way`, imo.

There is also F# Fable[0] compiler that compiles F# to JS. I would say its more ML like, syntax wise (excluding bucklescript ofc).

AFAIK FastAI courses are well recommended for their Deep Learning stuff but they also have ML course[0]
Another usual recommendation is Elements of Statistical Learning book. Another option is finding a MOOC that you enjoy and following it.

I would suggest F# to the op. Even though I have limited practical experience with it, from what I've read and see it checks op's checkboxes.

Looks great, would be nice to have syntax highlight support for more languages and maybe MathJax support.
Re:Ask HN: Why do we want to learn something new when we don't have time?

Spending 1 hour on learning a new subject makes you feel instantly better/improved easily since 101 stuff offers high exp/time spent ratio. If you don't have time you are probably stuck, cant progress etc. And that feeling you got from 1 hour lecture on a new subject makes you think you are making progress that you strive for on some things at least, thats how I explain it to myself.

In one of his books he told this story as follows, a cab driver watched him on TV and said to him "I cant believe you actually tried to explain what did you found." Then Feynman said "Well, what would you say?" Cab driver "If i could explain it in 2 min. then it would not be worthy." Afterwards Feynman used that line. I might be wrong though, but pretty sure he told a story like this.
