Interesting, I only have a passing familiarity with Java from school so I wonder if I'm just not appreciating what Clojure brings to the table in that regard.

Thanks for the response.

Yeah I genuinely would like an answer haha. I'm certainly not trying to start an argument I just don't know anyone personally who uses these designer languages (might be an unfair term) so I'm relatively uninformed.

Serious question: what problems does Clojure solve for programmers? Every time I try a new and interesting language I end up saying "Gee, that was pretty fun I guess" and then go back to whatever it is that I was using prior to that. I have never been able to justify moving away from Python or C. Learning a new language can be fun and enlightening in it's own ways, but it also feels like a waste of time.

Just curious if anyone can add some perspective.
