So, if I were to do your two week assignment in one day, in C, would that mean that C is much better than Clojure?
What if I gave your Sysadmin a make file that would build a Debian package or RPM package rather than expecting him to maintain some complex and silly deployments system? The sysadmin would be my new best friend, but would that imply that the language I used was better?
You are doing some seriously sloppy thinking here.
- lifeisstillgood 14y agoI have to disagree - he was talking about the eco-system of clojure as well as the language. We do get mixed up with complicated frameworks at the expense of simple (dare I say composable) solutions. Clojure is small and simple enough that it has not yet had the weight of working in a thousand different environments imposed on it.
