At a deeper level they are both pragmatic philosophers. They think at a high level but they are hands-on and have their feet firmly on ground realities. Inventing on principle is Bret Victor's contribution, but Rich Hickey surely lives it; and Hammock-Driven Development is Rich's notion, but there wouldn't be "Inventing on principle" without HDD on Bret's part. These two are awesome.
