I'm curious what you think about Clojurescript? leaving aside that it may be harder for teams to move to Clojurescript than to improve their JS codebase.

The reason for the question is that Clojurescript supports all the FP idioms of your slides more naturally and also has more FP features.

Looking at the table of contents from amazon, it looks like the book covers the basic data structures, but the book's website says the following:

"I assume the reader has completed the equivalent of a second programming course, typically titled Data Structures or Computer Science II."

So its confusing to know the target audience. To me it looks like someone with one language under his belt and some basic math(algebra/precalculus?) can do alright.

If the support for osx and linux depends on xamarin, the future of .NET on those platforms is very dubious.

Why would you remap the left option key to ctrl when you already have two left ctrl keys (caps and original ctrl) ? I do set the right option key to ctrl but only in iterm and emacs.

That's why apple keyboards (macbooks, imacs) bother me, they don't have a right ctrl key. (I set the right option key to ctrl in both iterm2 and gui emacs.
