Today's Google "AI overview" hallucination: "#Datomic between".

No, there is no `:between` operator in Datomic. As a Google user, I need to waste time figuring out that this is a hallucination, and then scroll down to results that actually make sense.

I'm increasingly fed up. I guess I'll just bite the bullet and switch to Kagi.

New blog post! „No, really, you can’t branch #Datomic from the past (and what you can do instead)”

#Clojure

https://blog.danieljanus.pl/2025/04/22/datomic-forking-the-past/

There are hornets in #Datomic that may sting you. Beware!

Is it possible to make a re-frame #localfirst app, syncing #datomic on the back-end and #datascript on the front-end? How would you do that?

#clojure

Me finally deciding I should try #datomic, going all the way through helloworld only to realize that the "datomic local" flavor doesn’t do stored functions.

(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

So to even try those I'd have to spin up a local postgres, deploy datomic transactor, and figure the pg schema.

#xtdb looks like fun again.

I was sick for the last ~ 10 days. Done almost nothing. 🤒 Feeling kinda recovered today. 🙏 ☀️

But had some shorts moments of clarity to play with #xtdb (#clojure) https://xtdb.com

I saw it ~ year ago when it was v1. Then they've released v2 with some breaking changes.

Summary: cool idea, but still raw as f.
The last drop for me was: they have an option to add metadata to the transaction but it's hidden from the public api and the PR is there for ~ 2 years

Switching to #datomic

I have been playing with #datomic in #clojure, but it leaves me wondering how schema migrations (adding new entities) is done in production. What do you use?

A little attempt at "programmer's humor", I hope you may enjoy it :-p #clojure #datomic https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41645499

soooo close to getting my evil #datomic on #sqlite+#litestream idea running and I’m now running into an undebuggable fly.io error 😵‍💫😭

Jepsen (a small consultancy focused on #distributed #systems safety) released their analysis of #Datomic safety and correctness - and concluded:
We found no behavior which violated Datomic’s core safety claims ... Indeed, we believe Datomic’s inter-transaction safety properties are stronger than promised. https://jepsen.io/analyses/datomic-pro-1.0.7075

For those of you who are Datomic users, and database users in general, I'd love to hear what you think about #Datomic's concurrent intra-transaction semantics. Do you struggle with traditional databases that let transactions observe intermediate state from earlier in the same transaction? Have you accidentally written transaction functions that assumed serial semantics? How has Datomic's model changed the way you design transactions?

As it is getting spring over here in the northern hemisphere, time to get the garden ready. https://application.garden I mean.

I've been moaning for something like this for years: just push a #Clojure app via git to application.garden and it will run it for you within seconds, complete with persistent storage, ability to use #Datomic and a on a domain of your choosing. No Docker, no <insert fancy pants tech stack no one understands here>.

Oh, and you can connect to the running app with your REPL♻️

We, Sharetribe, are launching tomorrow on Product Hunt! 🚀

Sharetribe is a no-code marketplace builder fully extendable with code.

And Sharetribe is built with your favorite tech stack, #clojure, #clojurescript, and #datomic! ❤️

I'd love it if you could follow our page and support us at https://www.producthunt.com/products/sharetribe !

This is a really well done tutorial on datalog, https://www.learndatalogtoday.org #clojure #datalog #datomic

Well, it looks like I'm building another database again.

This time, it is a database embedded into the MDM tool I'm working on, and it is heavily inspired by #Datomic and #xtdb

@haskman now if we could just replace Postgres with a functional database such as Datomic. Actually that's the only one I know of and sadly because it was closed source and commercially licensed very few other people have heard of it or used it. But I love the concept because fundamentally data isn't mutable, that's just an aberation of our desire to snapshot a view ignoring time.

#datomic #functionaldatabase

#git must have been the first successful bitemporal database.

The commits trees are the domain time, and the reflog is the transactional time.

It must has been the inspiration to #datomic and #xtdb.

Hans Hübner gives an interesting critique of #Datomic after 1 year in production. All good points made. http://bit.ly/2a0Gcts .
