Mobile-readable version of your list of Clojure design decisions:

- VMs, not OSes, are the platforms of the future, so target the JVM

- Object Orientation is overrated, but polymorphism is a good thing

- Multi-core is here to stay, so use immutable data structures to greatly facilitate writing correct concurrent programs

- Leverage the strengths of LISP but give it a modern overhaul (most notably, throw in different parenthesis)



My apologies, it was too late to correct my post when the complaints started coming in.

...but then again, who reads on a mobile device anyway (j/k) ;-)
