Ember.js is a very expressive framework that allows for more than one way to implement a feature. Ember computed properties are frequently used, but this can sometimes lead to code that is repetitive.

For my recent LambdaJam workshop on learning Clojure macros from first principles, I created a set of materials exploring the basic concepts. To really understand macros, you first need to have a good understanding of what makes them so powerful — homoiconicity. In this post, we’ll explore that property of the language.
A lot of functions in Clojure take the form (f args1* f2 args2*), where (f args1) represents a context and (f2 args2) represents a computation to perform in that context. I’m going to call this Clojure’s “contextual function” pattern (since I’ve never seen it named before). This pattern is easy to overlook, but it’s powerful, usually easy to apply, and following it in your own code has a number of benefits.
CMock is an extremely useful tool that can make testing C programs nearly painless. Employing CMock is usually straightforward, but here are a few common sticking points and ways to work around them:
