> Clojure is a Lisp. One of the distinctive things about Lisp is that it has dialects. You wrote your comment using software written in another of them.
I also wrote other comments on other sites using software written in PHP, what does that have anything to do with anything mentioned here? I guess it proves that you can use Lisp to write forum software. Still, not really related to my main question.
Slightly off-topic, I should mention that I've read most of pg's articles several times over the years. I know about Arc, Viaweb, etc. I'm asking about this topic after having read all those articles.
> The youngest of the companies you list was founded in 2007. The first stable Clojure release was in 2009.
Ok, then some other big company founded since 2009. It's been already about 9 years, there should be some around. I can wait for examples. Those companies can use any dialect of Lisp invented since the 50's :)
I know quite a few people employed working on Clojure. It's true that none of them are spectacularly large corporations, but there are quite a few companies out there using it day to day.
