Why HN links it
HN readers link this blog for a Clojure destructuring post, which a commenter cites when comparing Clojure with Ruby argument forwarding. Other comments are job-seeking posts that link the author's resume.
Summarised by Claude from a sample of 4 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.
