Indeed you are right. To say the truth I knew what to expect when I clicked the comments link: the “I studied hard therefore I deserve more” meritocratic bullshit we are used to. The worst lies are the ones we create ourselves as a excuse t

In clojure you have thread macros to solve the “inside-out” problem. (-> 3 (+ 6) (* 7) (/ 12)) or (just an example, fictional names) (->> object reflector fields (map :balance) (filter #(> % 1000)) Which reads like (pseudo

If you don’t have unit tests in a distributed team of 30+ devs per site you are screwed in ANY language.

It's not a valid javascript post if it doesn't say how many lines of code did you use. Edit: grammar

"Dart meanwhile is Google’s open-source Web programming language, which has an ultimate goal of replacing JavaScript." Good luck on that. On my side if I were to see JS replaced I would choose Lua as a replacement.

I was just looking for that! Can it be used with the normal lua interpreter too? I want to use it on my löve game, so, no luaJIT.

I could see it being worth using if it was just a q&a app but I don't want another social network to care for.

This is really cool but I have one question: "Now free, one month only" that means it's free forever if I download it this month or can I use it for free for one month and then I have to pay?

If hacker news is any indicator of success than go will become the most used programming language soon. Yeah I was been ironic but go is quite a nice language =)

"Where Clojure is about simplicity, Scala seems to be about complexity." I have the same opinion. I would really like to try a haskell on the jvm but I'd prefer if it'd be strict instead of lazy.

Which one is the simplest? I rest my case. Of course the regex is simpler as everyone who knows regexes will understand it. If you don't know regex you should invest time on learning it. It's the same if you say: I don&#x2

Wrong. Correlation is premature optimization, this is just a anecdotal strawman hominen Dunning-Kruger headline that needs citation. By the way you should have done it in Go.js on Arduino.

I had more or less the same experience with Scala but I just jumped all the all way to functional programming and started using Clojure, never looked back =)

Or you can use generators, fibers or core.async if you use clojurescript and have callbacks without all the pyramid of doom.

you can use core.async [1] on clojurescript right now to mitigate callback hell (or if you love go aync/channels) [1] http://www.infoq.com/news/2013/07/core-async

I did that and could't go back to Java, but then I learned Clojure, and now I can't go back to Scala =)
