@dibblego@curious_reader interested to learn rationale, and if there are parallels to Common Lisp and Scheme (or just Clojure specific?)1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@claudionatoli@curious_reader Yes it's a tricky one. Lisp and Scheme have the redemption of not knowing any better at the time.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -
