Clojure brought back my joy of programming after years in the Java framework driven world and the JS churn driven world. It feels like gardening where slowly your art takes shape, …

Take a sabbatical, move to a new country, buy a motorbike, learn BJJ, do tech stuff if you want. I’m the same age with kids and have done all of the above. Work is just work. Live …
