+1 for better title.
So I know about Joxa from another HN post related to BEAM based languages. I think that post better represents context for this Lispy-not-Erlang.
I have to say, I really like it, I plan to play more with it, but I think BEAM is solid platform and something I am not jaded with like with JVM, which probably is also excellent platform, just dealing with it /w JRuby soured me for life.
Anyhow, excellent effort, the other Lisp on BEAM LFE is great as well. Off to play with Joxa.

- bmh100 10y agoWhy are you jaded with the JVM? Would that lead you to choose Joxa over Clojure?
- desireco42 10y agoI think I referred of joy of using JRuby, nominally it is much faster, but problems with it are just not worth it. It is very hard to compare Joxa vs. Clojure, but I would definitely appreciate BEAM way more, especially as I like Elixir and Erlang a lot.
