> Recently a Clojure documentary came out and the approach of Rich Hickey was seemingly the opposite: Deep research of prior art, papers, other languages over a long period of time.

That was also on my mind thanks to the documentary. Then I followed up with "Easy made Simple" and "Hammock Driven Development", and it makes me want to learn Clojure.

It's a really good language that is worth learning. If you like you can join the slack that is linked on clojure.org. Beginners are very welcome in my experience and there are a ton of great people around there.
