Comment on Ask HN: Java 8 or Scala?parent

Comments

If immutablity and functional style programming are priorities, then why Scala over Clojure? By which I mean that the decision is less about technical concerns, they all run on the JVM, than team dynamics and who is willing to learn what...or not learn what. If using Java/Scala contributes to the likelihood of the project team failing then Java/Scala is the wrong choice.
