not really, mate. usually people downvote replies that add nothing of substance or something similar to reddit reaction reply, you get the gist. but yes, this is a forum of rent-seeking class.
yea, mate. definitely. if i want to hear / read some replies by machine, i'd ask them myself. the value of the this site is the lived experience and thought by the users.
yeah, but still, the maintainers need to be paid for their time and expertise. not to mention, although bandwidth and storage is cheap, somebody still have to foot the bill. i suggest people donate to this project.
can't help but to think that somebody has bribed them to pass the stupid bill, yea? oh, sorry, "lobbied" is the correct word for it. anyway, what's with texas and fossil fuel love-story? seems they don't want to get separated.
mate, never heard of it. but reading that the maintainer has done gargantuan effort to make it more accessible to the masses, all I can say is thank you very much and may whatever endeavours you're going to take will be much more fruitful to you.
same, mate. i'm not sure why people question or consider my preference (that actually affects my situation) as an unusual situation. haven't they ever seen a blind with a stick? to be exaggerating.
> "But what about hiring?" When you use any language that isn't in the top 3 of currently most popular languages, you will get this question. JavaScript programmers are counted in the millions, Clojure programmers in the tens of thousands. How will you ever find the required talent?
is it just me or i, for the love of whatever that is holy, find that fp related jobs are so few and far in between? not only clojure, but also f#, haskell, etc? to be honest, fam, if you want to sell a language or two, at least make it possible for people to make a living in it. sorry to say, mate, but my kids can't eat a "lovely" niche programming language.
p.s., i actually have some working exp. in haskell yet nobody approached me because of it.
