You'd probably wanna use Java anyways. Sometimes you're stuck with a language even if there are nicer alternatives, that's why stuff like C++ is still so popular. Java is by far the most relevant programming language for the JVM.

Why would anyone want to target the JVM? I get that it's portable or whatever, but it just doesn't make sense to me. With C++ you get a language which is faster, equally portable and more powerful.

I guess this time NOTHING can stop functional languages to take over the world, right? Since they are SO MUCH BETTER I guess Clojure is BOUND to become the HIGHEST TRENDING on stackoverflow.
