That's an incredibly cynical view. I'm sorry that Clojure was not for you -- it happens. People have different ways of thinking and the language that makes sense to you might not make sense to me. This is natural I would say and not likely reflective of general intelligence. There's no need to be bitter about it.
- RivieraKid 13y agoI loved playing with Clojure, especially with the overtone library. But I just couldn't see myself be more productive in Clojure than in Python. > People have different ways of thinking and the language that makes sense to you might not make sense to me. This is natural I would say and not likely reflective of general intelligence. There's no need to be bitter about it. I was mostly refering to the essay by Paul Graham that is sometimes referenced here on HN. I find some of PG's claims about lisp's productivity ridiculous and almost religious.
