Watching "London Clojure User Group:Radical Simplicity", by Stuart Halloway. (I have his book on Clojure, very good one.) I usually hate video/podcasts because they take so much longer than reading, but some times there is no choice.
One thing in the talk caught my attention:
He asserts that one of the differences between Java and Clojure is that in the latter it takes 10x time to write each LOC, and in the end it is 10x less LOC than Java equivalent. It means there is no difference in pace of development, but there is a big difference in support and interoperation.
My experience is bout the same (10x more time, 10x less code). Before watching this video I though the "10x more time" is just because I am dumb or inexperienced with Clojure :)
