Anyone use a #lisp or other #functional language professionally? Curious about the market for those kinds of skills.

#clojure
#haskell
#elixir
#scala
#ocaml

@Hotweatherisbad I've been using OCaml for 20+ years. I currently work on Semgrep at r2c.dev. The market is small which has its pros and cons. In the field of programming language analysis, compilers, etc., it's all good. Outside of these traditional niches, OCaml can be a great language but it will get blamed by people who don't understand programming but think they do if anything goes wrong.
