| | Clojure is a dynamically, strongly typed programming language. It's a dialect of _Lisp_ running on the Java Virtual Machine. Lisp is 6 decades old and has a really weird syntax. That weird syntax is called _Polish prefix notation_. Basically, in every other language you've used math operators like plus or minus are infix. It means they are placed between operands. For example, `1 + 2`. In Clojure, you always put the operator (or any other function for that matter) in front. So simple addition becomes... `+ 1 2`.

| | Dependency injection is one of my favorite design patterns to develop highly-testable and modular code. Unfortunately, applying this pattern by taking Rust traits as arguments to public functions has unintended consequences on the visibility of private symbols. If you are not careful, most of your crate-internal APIs might need to become public just because you needed to parameterize a function with a trait. Let's look at why this happens and what we can do about it.

| | The Rust programming language sent ripples through the programming community when it was first released in 2015, promising the blazing speed of lower-level programming languages without the accompanying sharp edges. Four and a half years on, many programmers still view Rust with a mix of intrigue and trepidation due to its appealing premise and notoriously difficult learning curve. We sat down with one of Cosive's Senior Developers, Sid Odgers, to talk about why he believes more programmers should take the plunge and learn Rust.
