"Am I the only one who see's this as blatant link bait?" Lau Jensen is a known pro Clojure troll with a history of dissing other languages with not much knowledge about those languages. See the discussion at http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1771595 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1771595 for links to where he attempts to discredit Scala, C# and Python (the last of which, in retrospect, is mildly funny, since a Clojure port of Norvig's Sudoku solver ended up slower than Python). fwiw he's even made dumb comments on the Clojure dev process and got told off by Rich Hickey.(who said about one of his blog posts "tl;dr: This blog post is the idle chatter of people who are not involved in the Clojure development process in any significant way. Lau has never submitted a single patch. Apparently his free lunch isn't arriving fast enough." http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2055543 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2055543) I wouldn't pay him much attention (I am surprised this article got so many upvotes). He writes inflammatory stuff all the time. Think Jon Harrop minus the competence.
