Pico-Lisp looks pretty cool, and that massive book of yours is nuts. It
seems like there is an example for everything in there! About the poor
reception in spite of Rosetta-Code success, I can only say that predicting
human behavior on the assumption that their decisions are rational, is

I think doing some XML manipulation with clojure.data.xml, tree-seq and
basic data structures shows a lot of the benefits in a little bit of code,
and is pretty persuasive in my experience.
This thing correlates paths from openstreetmap via unique node-ids to give
you a way to find intersecting ro
Hi Martin,

I completely agree with the above, if it is professional programmers you
are trying to convince. I should mention that while my friend was talking
about "indus
Hello,
I think that the book Functional patterns in Scala and Clojure has a lot of
snippets, which can attract many programmers.

This is related just to some degree, but IMHO part of the problem is also a
landing page of a programming language and a concept of a minimum viable
code snippet, how Fogus named it in his blogpost:

I think that it was already discussed

Hello everyone!
A Java programmer recently mentioned to me that if the Clojure community
wants to appeal to industry programmers that they would need to provide
example code comparisons, which clearly show why it is good to choose
Clojure over another language. The same person gave me the follo
