Clojure 1.12 (which is nearly done) is going to add a bunch of interop support - method values, array class syntax, Clojure fn -> Java functional interface conversion, stream support, etc.

Datomic transactions are not “operations to perform”, they are a set of novel facts to incorporate at a point in time. Just like a git commit describes a set of modifications, do you or should you want to care about which order or how the a

The other thing I didn't mention is that the change to remove biased locking a while back has also had an impact in some places that do almost always uncontended locking, so we're kind of considering that too.

We are aware, and that is one of the options. :)

How do we ever move the world forward if we are only allowed to have one thing?

I think this is insightful and probably an unconscious bias of the core team (who have all used Java for decades) and have a good sense of that.

There are a number of companies with 100s of Clojure developers and I know of several Clojure companies with 100ks of LOC. Most larger projects I know of use ancillary systems to validate map attributes via spec, Schema, Malli, etc. Statica

To get started with clj, you need 0 files. From a project directory, you can just type `clj` and get a REPL that includes Clojure and source files in src/. You can add new source files and immediately invoke them with `clj -X`. You can

Clojure projects can start with literally no files (not even a deps.edn). By default, you get Clojure as a dep and src/ as a directory. Run `clj` to get a repl. If you make a function, you can call it with `clj -X my.ns/foo`. If y

gists are git repos and can contain multiple files. Since clj supports git deps, you've been able to use them as deps for a long time. Example gist: https://gist.github.com/puredanger/cbcdd9f54deb7fb7309fdd632...

Thanks! After Cognitect joined Nubank we have mostly wound down that part of our business. But if you're in the market for a database, please check out https://www.datomic.com/ !
