I have been to a local Clojure conference once. Most of the guys who started practising Clojure was inspired by Rich Hickey's functional programming talks. I'm wondering how many such BDFL inspire users to adopt something new just with talks!
- iLemming 9y agoI didn't even know about Rich Hickey talks and "Simple made easy" when I decided to start learning Clojure. I came to conclusion that I needed to learn a Lisp after learning Emacs and dubbing in writing small elisp functions. I had no idea and was really surprised when I found out how awesome Lisp can be, so I looked at the current state of Lisp at the time. And then after learning a bit of Clojure and Clojurescript and seeing things people were building with it, I quit my job. I really wanted to use Clojure full-time. Never in my life I ever before have had this urge to learn a language and build things with it.
