I had eight years of (hobbyist) Lisp experience when I was laid off in May; by then I was using Clojure in my home projects. Two of my interviews mentioned Scala, one place used it as their main language. I decided that, even if the languages were equally powerful and interesting, I was betting on the wrong horse, and have started to concentrate with Scala.
- mark_l_watson 14y agoI think you made the correct decision. BTW, even though I am using Clojure on my own business ideas/projects, in the last 15 years as a consultant I have always used Common Lisp, Java, Ruby, or Clojure because one of those languages was what a particular customer requested. I never try to talk a customer into a particular technology stack.
