So would you say this is more about your mindset when programming in LISPs? I like to use Clojure for my side projects and don't seem to feel the same way about my programs as you do. Even as a long time primarily imperative/OO programmer (but who has tried pretty much every language out there, too), Clojure actually feels like one of the most pragmatic languages I've used.
- smnplk 9y agoIt's the same with me. I didn't have any lisp experience before learning Clojure. I see it as very pragmatic language, the kind that lets you get shit done, it doesn't get in your way. But that said, I can understand why parent compares lisp to art. I would say functional design is art, because you need to put in a lot of effort to learn it.
