Migration from Postgres to Datomic
Recently, I migrated my Clojure-driven pet project from PostgreSQL to Datomic. This is Queryfeed , a web application to fetch data from social networks.

At this point we have a TCP/IP stack that is able to communicate to other hosts in the Internet. The implementation so far has been fairly straight-forward, but missing a major feature: Reliability.

Rolling Shutter Simulation in C
The most recent Smarter Every Day (#172) explains a phenomenon that results from rolling shutter . You’ve likely seen this effect in some of your own digital photographs. When a CMOS digital camera captures a picture, it reads one row of the sensor at a time. If the subject of the picture is a fast-moving object…
