Trouble with Logs

Interesting Post (via reddit) on logging and difference between logs and traces. Also, if you look below, there is a comment on logging in YAML. Now that really caught my eye. Because if it were JSON (which is essentially a YAML subset), we should be able to parse the log directly using Javascript. Taking it a bit further, if I have a log that is in JSON, then we should be able to create a live-update pretty easily.

Hmmm.. We are looking at some specific formats for logging in our applications. This maybe a good idea.

The power of clojure is growing

Clojure is a great idea. Take lisp, apply it to the JVM, add functional programming sauces and voila!, you can now do QT programming!
