    Never underestimate the value of clearly defining a problem before you begin solving.

    One of the fundamental differences between and most other programming languages is that it was designed around ideas and concepts, not features.

    Heard about and at the same time. Did scala for 5-6 years and realized was right about everything. Been doing clojure for 6+ years now and couldn't be happier. Most well thought out language, ever. Thanks to all the contributors!

    Everytime I learn something new, I realize again how Clojure was right all along.

    And that's just it: is a like a space ship. How do you explain what it's like to pilot a Millennium Falcon to someone who has only every driven a car?

    I really enjoyed presenting "Defeating the Four Horsemen of the Coding Apocalypse" at . Its functional, data-driven style and the REPL make an incredibly powerful tool for defeating unfamiliarity, complexity, opacity, and distance.

    was awesome this year! At what other language/tech conference do you wander around and regularly hear people drop the word "joy" to describe their experience? Thank-you , community, and everyone else involved!

    A subtle thing that I treasure about Clojure is that its flexibility has let me execute last-minute changes I wouldn't even consider in any other environment, for fear of everything coming unglued. It becomes OK if the bones come up in an inconvenient order.

    I am so excited and honored to be able to speak at 2019 about "Defeating the 4 Horsemen of the Coding Apocalypse." Summary: Complexity is not your only problem. I'll discuss that and 3 more big ones and how excels at dealing with them all.

    You need a language as powerful as the problems you are trying to solve.
