Now that you have dipped your toes in both Clojure/ClojureScript and Haskell, how do you think both of them fair when it comes to web development or building small cli apps like the zsh_history parse you had built. Also will you be sticking to one of either?

I really like Clojure for its Lisp background but I'm a bit confused and would really appreciate some advice on how to get efficient at it.

They both seem like extremely well-designed languages and good at a variety of tasks.

Also will you be sticking to one of either?

I think it's likely that there is some Haskell in my near future.

Ideally, go work somewhere with good Clojure programmers. Write a lot of it. Get feedback on what you wrote.

Thanks Ben, much appreciated!
