Clojure has the benefit of hindsight; it is one of the newest programming languages and it is not constrained by a published standard, nor does it need to cater to tens of vendors or any existant code-bases (Nearly every user of Clojure is on github ;-)
- honr 14y agoI think wise people prefer programming in good languages that enjoy the benefit of hindsight. Common Lisp does not have the luxury of hindsight, and can hardly change its specification to reflect modern theoretical and practical PL results. Personally, I slightly prefer Clojure over SBCL.
