Every Java developer ever: "after >=10 years of java, I switched to ruby|python|js and I'm so much productive now!"
Also, surely your 25 years of experience have nothing to do with you being more productive now than 25 years ago.
- iLemming 7y agoPeople switch to Clojure from other languages, not just Java. I've seen plenty of former Java, Ruby, Python, C#, JS/TS, C++ and even Haskell devs who switched to Clojure and say - Clojure does feel more productive.
- WillPostForFood 7y agoMore productive than the day before they switched, not 25 years ago.
- d_t_w 7y agoThis is the point. I still work in Java occasionally but I'm much more effective delivering in Clojure today - with 10 years experience, than I am in Java which I used my entire career. Same host environment, many of the same libraries, same developer. Different language, different mindset.
