Clojure Berlin

Thanks once again to Dan from AKQA for hosting this months edition. We're looking forward to see you. Here's the preliminary program, as usual impromptu presentations are welcome 👍

Grafting Linked Data (what a billion rows taught us about pipelines) — Robin Gower

Robin is a freelance developer and economist. He worked with Swirrl to create Grafter, a clojure library for turning spreadsheets into linked-data. In this talk he will share some tips for writing legible and efficient pipelines.

Implementing Sugar & James' k-means jump method — Dave Liepmann

Dave will walk us through his Clojure implementation of Sugar & James' jump method for evaluating k-means clusters. You can find the paper here (http://www-bcf.usc.edu/~gareth/research/ratedist.pdf).

There's one more slot for a talk available. Please contact the organizers if you're interested (martinklepsch@gmail.com or pesterhazy@gmail.com).

You've played around with that new library? Great! Tell us about it.

You've seen something awesome in another language the other day? Tell us about that too!

You pulled your hair out trying to figure out that one problem last week? Let's solve it together!

You built something fun in Clojure lately? Demo it!

Talks should be 20 minutes max but don't have to be you talking for the entire time. Usually people love discussing things :-) Also lightning talks (5min talk + 5min Q/A) are welcome.
