Hey Nicolas, Thanks for the feedback and corrections. I was trying to hone in on OO and Lisp's model of what it means to compute. While this just served as a backdrop for the conceptual and code differences between Bkeeping's Java and Clojure versions, I can see a much deeper analysis happening he

Transitioning an App from Java to Clojure (Notes of a Talk)

Hi all, I recently gave a talk at a Toronto Dev Shop, The Jonah Group. It just detailed my experiences, transitioning a Java app to a Clojure app, and the benefits that accrued to me. I thought it would be nice to share with the Clojure community. Below is an approximate
