Sean, I don't think that's really fair to either Scala or Clojure though. Yeah, both of their numbers are small potatoes next to Java or C#, but not insignican

Sean, I don't think that's really fair to either Scala or Clojure though. Yeah, both of their numbers are small potatoes next to Java or C#, but not insignicant...as in last week there was 4 Clojure users and now there's 16..OMG there's been a 400% jump!.
- seanmcdirmid 12y agoWe are talking about adoption rates between Scala and Clojure. When Scala was a few years old, I am arguing that its adoption rate was similar to what Clojure is experiencing today. So looking at the "current trajectory" doesn't tell the whole story. It is adoption over the long term that will tell us who has won (or is winning) the language wars. The xkcd cartoon is obviously exaggerated satire.
