The mission of the NYC-Clojure Users Group is to meet with developers who are interested in the Clojure programming language in an atmosphere of collaboration and learning.

The J programming language is unlike any other.  It offers powerful tools for algorithm expression and experimentation by incorporating high-level data manipulation concepts as a logical, consistent notation. This allows you to quickly explore complex problems and express solutions succinctly. J is a functional language but with imperative forms for flexibility. J's concise notation and interactivity speed up algorithm development by orders of magnitude compared to more conventional languages. T …

Socially Functional is a meetup group for programmers that like to chat/scheme/vent about functional programming. It is also known as Functional Alcoholics, which is a hilarious pun except when people see it out of context and think you have a drinking problem. We have weekly hacking sessions at a coffee shop, and bar meetups at fairly random intervals. If you have an idea for a good bar or other venue, post it!

Semi-regular tutorials/discussions about OCaml language features and libraries. A meetup should ideally center around a topic which (1) contains some interesting core idea, (2) helps us get stuff done, (3) is reasonably accessible to people without a ton of OCaml experience (but who might be familiar with other MLs, Haskell, Scheme, etc...)

Devoted to all things Emacs.  Let's share our knowledge and experience of the many cool and kooky features of our beloved text-editor/IDE/MU-client/email-client/way-of-being.  To get us off the ground, here are some possible topics: org-mode, mu/mudel, ERC/rcirc, VM, w3m.  If you can think of any others, then please speak up!  Meetings can be formal talks, but they don't have to be; we could just as well gather around a café table and banter and share.

Based on our experience running a funded e-commerce startup headquartered in New York City, we believe that the traditional disciplines of technology, product and marketing will increasingly converge in the startup setting. If you're currently working at a startup on the bleeding edge of innovation, this is not news to you. It's happening all around us. In some cases, professionals choose to take on a mix of these skills themselves, while in other cases it's more about a professional fully embra …

In this group we'll make our way through the book "Seven Languages in Seven Weeks: A Pragmatic Guide to Learning Programming Languages," by Bruce Tate. It's a quick deep-dive into seven very different languages: Ruby, Io, Prolog, Scala, Erlang, Clojure and Haskell. I know almost nothing about these languages myself -- I'm a JavaScript guy with some very limited exposure to Ruby -- and do not expect to become an expert in any of them overnight, but I am excited to dive into paradigms I know nothi …

Many of us also happen to be independent contractors, solo/entrepreneurs, business owners, and otherwise interested in building killer businesses as well as awesome software. Depending on the week/month, expect a mix of f …
