Clojure to die for

I spent 10 or more hours writing &quot;Building static sites in Clojure with Stasis&quot; (<a href="http://cjohansen.no/building-static-sites-in-clojure-with-stasis" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;cjohansen.no&#x2F;building-static-sites-in-clojure-with-st...</a> &#x2F; <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7375425" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=7375425</a>). It was written so people could enjoy it even with little Clojure experience. As a piece of supportive material, I pulled together this post about some (to me) exciting idioms in about 40 minutes. Results after one day: the afterthought is #4 on hacker news, and has 10k views. The &quot;real&quot; post has a mere 3k views, and is long gone from hacker news.<p>Who says hard work pays off?

I&#x27;ve thought about learning Clojure but already knowing Haskell I feel that in comparison I wouldn&#x27;t gain much and then loose some.

Small typo:<p>The link to Clojure points to &quot;<a href="http://cjohansen.no/clojure.org&quot;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;cjohansen.no&#x2F;clojure.org&quot;</a> instead of &quot;<a href="http://clojure.org&quot;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;clojure.org&quot;</a>.

Nice writeup. There&#x27;s an error in one of the examples though:<p>(map :name people)<p>evaluates to a lazy sequence, not a vector.

In which the author gets really excited about idioms in Clojure that don&#x27;t seem that exciting.
