Huh it's orthogonal but basically Clojure is an attempt to answer all those four problems, right? Bypassing the which LISP problem by canonical implementation on top of host VMs (of which there are JVM, CLR, JS, Dart and BEAM), bypassing the spec, bypassing the whole object-oriented problem by impure functional approach, and having a BDFL on the top.
Anyway, back to the main point, thank you for the article. I'll try to play around with Dak later today and see if I can use it to do something fun. Play is better to learn something after all.
