But it inherits oracle disease.

Clojure didn't even work out for me. I am not sure why. Anyhow, what's the deal with it? Can you show me something that is nice in Clojure? Why doesn't it just work on Winblowz?

Clojure is not a LISP.

We like this very much, this is why we use Clojure instead of Scheme or some other Lisp.

Depending on the jvm is not the answer. It's an insecure unpatched monstrosity.

insecure
Because we can't have programs performing dangerous operations like opening files!

It works on any system with a JVM. Why are you using Windows anyway?

The java standard library is so insecure the national security administration advised the US to stop using java.

If only clojure used any other back end.

There is a port to the CLR

That's better but I still hate it. Try again.

ClojureScript compiles to JavaScript.

That's useful if I'm writing a client side web application. But for the times when I'm not, try again.

That shit looks more like c++ or javascript than actual lisp.
(defn square-mat
[n e & {:keys [implementation]
:or {implementation :persistent-vector}}]
(let [repeater #(repeat n %)]
(matrix implementation (-> e repeater repeater))))

Maybe its doing something right, since its the most popular form of Lisp(excluding JavaScript) today.

If it is, it's certainly not the syntax shit. People want more rich immutability utilities, and are willing to put up with worse syntax to get it.

I think 24 got it.

JVM is king. Why reinvent the wheel with a buggy custom runtime that will eventually become unmaintained?

The CLR will obsolete the JVM when Oracle starts suing people for implementing standard Java interfaces and Satya announces his marriage to RMS.

No one wants to pay MS licensing fees when (at least) equally good software exists 100% for free even for commercial use. Oracle's JDK will be free forever, and if Larry closes it, then another corporation + the community will fork it and put Larry out of business.
