Considering Clojure would work better in SBCL I think that says a little something about Clojure and a little something about CL. Macros in ParenScript make Clojurescript seem like a bad rails library.

- olewhalehunter 11y agohttp://c2.com/cgi/wiki?CommonLispConditionSystem http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?CommonLispConditionSystem "When an exception is thrown in Java, the stack unwinds meaning all state in stack frames from the point of the throw to the handler gets thrown out." "In Common Lisp, the stack does not unwind and high level logic can simply restart the computation (after fixing the error or trying different strategies) without losing any intermediate state. This killer feature is what makes interactive debugging possible." Not enforcing a functional paradigm also makes prototyping easier.
