What is the business value of Clojure?: Is there some reason a business would choose Clojure over other languages? Let’s find out! by The Eric Normand Podcast

Divide and conquer algorithms: The divide and conquer pattern is a widely used functional programming pattern. It lets you turn potentially hard problems into trivial problems and then recombine the answers. by The Eric Normand Podcast

A Theory of Functional Programming 0001: OK. I’m trying this out. I’m writing a book. I’m going to move. I’m writing a book. I think I’m going to call it, A Theory of Functional Programming.” Let me explain. Here is the reasoning. That’s bad lighting hold on. I’ll explain what I’m doing and I’ll by The Eric Normand Podcast

A Theory of Functional Programming 0002: All right. I am talking about, “A Theory of Functional Programming,” which is a book that I’m working on, and this is actually me working on it right now. I am going to talk about the topic, and hopefully, the transcript will turn into my book. I talked a by The Eric Normand Podcast

A Theory of Functional Programming 0003: All right, this is my attempt at writing a book. If you haven’t joined me before, my name is Eric Normand. I’m writing a book called “A Theory of Functional Programming.” The industry needs a good definition of functional programming. No one has provided by The Eric Normand Podcast

A Theory of Functional Programming 0004: Today, we’re going to be talking actions. Now, as counter-intuitive as it may be, functional programming has more to say about actions than it does about data and calculations. At least, more interesting stuff to say. by The Eric Normand Podcast
37 min listen
A Theory of Functional Programming 0006: What I want to talk about is this issue of what is an action and what is a calculation in terms of timeliness, because we know that deep down in the computer, everything is an action. Every operation depends on what is that particular locations in memory by The Eric Normand Podcast

What Clojure needs to grow — a boring web framework and boring data science: I think a lot about what Clojure needs. Is there something that is sort of the bottleneck for growth? People talk about different things as their hypotheses for what would make it grow. I think that what Clojure needs — I’ll talk about my hypotheses — I t by The Eric Normand Podcast

Build an interface around data: Clojure programmers often complain about data structures getting unwieldy and hard to understand. How can we prevent this? by The Eric Normand Podcast
15 min listen
A cool Functional Programming pattern. Do you know what to call it?: I use this pattern all the time when I’m programming, and I don’t know if it has a name. It involves lifting a value into a new space, solving a problem with it, then lowering it back down. by The Eric Normand Podcast
19 min listen
Bottom up vs Top Down Programming: I think the real trick to all of that is always think about the data as being forever. One thing that we often do when we’re programming is we want things to be a little bit more concrete. by The Eric Normand Podcast
12 min listen
Why do we need a Theory of Functional Programming?: Though I have gotten good reception for the theory in general, a few people have asked me why we need a theory. More people have told me I’m complicating Functional Programming, which should be a simple idea. by The Eric Normand Podcast
11 min listen
What does it mean for Actions to be first-class?: In Functional Programming, everything needs to be first class? But what does that mean? And why is it important? I discuss the idea of composing Actions and Calculations dynamically. by The Eric Normand Podcast
20 min listen
The magical leverage of languages: If I write a straightforward solution to a problem in Clojure, it might take me a thousand lines of code to solve it. To handle all the corner cases and everything, I got a thousand lines of code. However, if I take this other approach where it’s much mor by The Eric Normand Podcast

What is Immutability?: Functional Programmers will talk about immutable values. What do they mean? How can you write software where none of the values change? by The Eric Normand Podcast
12 min listen
Can you do Functional Programming in any language?: Can you do functional programming in any language? Is it possible to do functional programming in C, in Java, in assembly, in Ruby, or do you need a functional language? What is a functional language anyway? by The Eric Normand Podcast
19 min listen
Algebraic Properties and Composition: In school, we learn about a few algebraic properties. These apply very well in functional programming because their expression is so simple, their definitions are so simple and they really focus on how things compose. by The Eric Normand Podcast
10 min listen
A Theory of Functional Programming 0005: There are different patterns that we use as functional programmers to reduce the possible states so that it becomes easier to reason about. I think that this is something that we should talk about a little bit more, because it’s actually something that is by The Eric Normand Podcast

What does it mean for programs to be built using “whole values”?: John Hughes, FP researcher extraordinaire, says Whole Values is one of the principles of Functional Programming. But what does he mean? We explore this important concept. by The Eric Normand Podcast
23 min listen
What a Clojure Web Framework might look like: One of the questions that came up a couple times was what is a Web framework? What does that even mean? I don’t want to get into philosophical discussion about what a framework is. Is it a library or framework or any of those kinds of questions. I’ll tell by The Eric Normand Podcast
22 min listen
Why are actions hard to test by definition?: Functional programming divides the world into actions, calculations, and data. Actions are hard to test by definition, and we explore why. by The Eric Normand Podcast

Programming is a pop culture and what we should do about it: I want to talk about how programming is a pop culture. It’s true, programming is a pop culture. There are big trends, fads, new frameworks coming out all the time. It’s all about attention and getting mind share and people watching your media about what f by The Eric Normand Podcast

Why are corner cases the devil? ?: Corner cases make for complex code. They multiply with each other. And as they multiply, they reduce the effectiveness of each new line of code. by The Eric Normand Podcast

What will increase your programming productivity the most?: Lisps have traditionally been highly interactive. This allowed AI researchers and language developers to iterate quickly and learn about what works and what doesn’t. How can you tap into this in your workflow? by The Eric Normand Podcast
11 min listen
Focus on the data first: What should we design first to make sure our software will last without having to constantly rework our code? We should focus on the data first because it is the most timeless. by The Eric Normand Podcast
13 min listen
Is FP just programming with pure functions?: As I develop and expound this theory, it may seem to be too complicated. Isn’t functional programming just programming with pure functions? Why make this more complicated than that? We talk about my reasons and my goals for the theory. by The Eric Normand Podcast
11 min listen
How variants can reduce complexity: If we don’t limit it, complexity will get out of hand. One way to limit complexity is by collapsing the number of possible states down to a few known states that we know how to handle. by The Eric Normand Podcast

The #2 most important idea in Computer Science: In my opinion, the #2 most important idea is something that came directly out of computing. But I’m not so sure. Do you know? Let me know, too! by The Eric Normand Podcast

Should we waste memory?: We have so much memory now, compared to the 1970s, that it often seems like we have memory to burn. I misspoke in a previous episode where I made it seem like I’m in favor of wasting memory. But what did I mean instead? by The Eric Normand Podcast

Build your Core Abstraction: With limited development time, where should you focus your efforts? You should build something timeless at the center of you application to create a strong foundation to build on top of. I call that you Core Abstraction. by The Eric Normand Podcast
