Right. I find it annoying too, but for the opposite reason.
Since GraalVM, Babashka, and before them Lumo and Planck, or just plain CLJS + NodeJS, Clojure (the language) has several answers to those use cases, and it’s unclear to me at least why this is a point of contention regarding Clojure (the JVM implementation). Should we also bash CLJS for being single threaded?
- jjwiseman 5y agoAnd now that it's honestly approached as a potential issue, you can talk about the tradeoffs involved here. I haven't followed those projects closely so correct me if I'm wrong, but Babashka is an interpreter that implements a "substantial subset" of Clojure, right? GraalVM seems amazing, but it also is not a guaranteed seamless experience, either (no eval, partial support for reflection).
