In your post, you talk about a certain naivete among Lispers about its practicality in industry, explain that python and java benefit from their added restrictions, and then offer up the above quote by Abelson. But you never really tie these observations back to Clojure. So I want to ask explicitly, do you think Clojure is suitable for these sorts of really large programs? Why or why not? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
