Not a clojure fan, but:
- dev churn is just a fact of life in this industry
- I'd love to know which language stops you from having 100k LOC codebase that nobody understands! Certainly not C#, typescript, Java...
- "esoteric developers" - that's a bit glass half empty! In my experience people who have taken the time to learn functional programming or any non top-10 language are usually pretty smart and motivated.
- tartoran 4y agoAgree that dev chrurn is a fact of life. But smart and motivated doesn’t imply not painting onself in a corner, it requires a different kind discipline which could be achieved with any language more or less. However, I find that the most frequent reason for churn is company culture of overwork and chaotic environment and in a place where ‘devs rule’ churn goes down drastically.
