I hope you enjoy it!

Thanks for writing the book. Just bought it (before the "marketing
discussion";-)) and really like what I've read so far!

Finished my first read-through last night, I really enjoyed the book and
thought it was an excellent and informative read. Best resource I've read yet
for understanding reactive programming as a whole. Thanks for writing it!

Congratulations Leo! Folks, I had an opportunity to read some advance
chapters and it looked great even then. I'm really looking forward to
reading the whole thing. Well done.

Not a planned one anyway :p

Just bought a copy too. So far looks great! Can't wait to read the rest of
it :)

book's marketing strategy. It worked! I just bought my copy ;-)

Hi Leonardo, I haven't read it yet but I am very much looking forward

Fine with me. Let's call it off.
It's not either a forum about netiquette or about 'how bad this word/expression
hurts anonymous people'.

So far I'm finding the book instructive! Good job. As far as the detour,
I'd keep in mind that in general Rich likely isn't in favor of it on this
list but on the other hand I didn't find that the criticism was personal as
no names were mentioned and I commiserate about so called "architects"

Just thought I would leave a quick note for anyone interested in the book
(and hopefully get the thread back on topic). I'm about 1/3 through the
book and have found it really well written and interesting so far. It's an
excellent introduction to reactive programming in general and for clojure
There is value in comparing approaches, minus the personal attacks. I would
suggest starting a different thread, though.
Bringing this back to the original topic - I'm about 25% through the book, and
it is really good so far. Thank you Leonardo for writing what so far appears

This is another way of saying "Do not point the contrast between Clojure

Luc, you are missing the point: this isn't the forum for that
discussion regardless of how valid the points in that discussion are.
This is a _Clojure_ forum, not a 'what's wrong with the (technology)
world' forum, I would suggest this isn't even a 'how can Clojure fix
the world' forum.
Luc, pleas
The 'attack' word is again a manifestation of extreme political correctness.
I will argue that these technologies with their inherent complexity are
creating huge
bureaucracies to attract and hide unqualified/unskilled/uncommited/... aka
'stupid' people
from scrutiny.
These environments have t
Not being politically correct is fine.
But an attack on anonymous "stupid" people in this context is pointless and
sours the otherwise potentially useful commentary. It also completely
derails the topic.

I support your statement.
I am fed up by this extreme political correctness era.
This leads directly to auto censorship.
I met numerous 'anarchitects' who never had to bring an app from inception to
real life use but nonetheless where issuing 'profound' statements about the

Look, you have nobody here to convince of Clojure's greatness. I propose
you send exactly the same message to a Scala or Java8 group to validate
your assumptions.

No one is arguing the pros/cons of different technologies, only the
inappropriateness of your language.

Trust me I have been using Scala + Akka + Play for past three years in
production, and had to deal with tons of incidental complexity plus a lot
of noise they introduce as my daily job (in my code as well as other
developer's code). Now I am in the best position to judge and compare them

No - he is right, we just don't say it! Obviously I am kidding :).

Hi Shahrdad, just a point of etiquette, inferring that an architect is
ignorant because they chose Java8, Akka and play is full of assumptions.
Calling those technologies pathetic is very bad poor.
As I like to quote "Any intelligent fool can make things bigger and more

Awesome!
It was about the time that someone shows the power of clojure in reactive
programming (and in particular core async) to the practitioners that use
Scala / AKKA for orchestration.
I personally work in a company that some ignorant architect decided to

Congratulations, it looks really interesting.
Registered on Packtpub to buy it and they sent me a 50% off any eBook
promo, plus I just got my first Re-Frame application started this morning.

something new!
