Clojure makes simple code easy to write and maintain. It is more practical than most other Lisps by wisely choosing on which giants should to stand. E.g. - make immutability the normal case, yet it is sufficiently performing that one rarely

You should almost never catch all exceptions, i.e. Throwable on the JVM. That is one of the few things that Scala really got right. The `catch NonFatal(e) =>` idiom is doing that nicely. It will catch all throwables with a selected set o

That goal of never debugging in production is understandable. But some companies have that software that falls in to the shit-in-shit-out category of software. By that, I mean software that does basically no input validation and consistency
