Reading Clojure with macros everywhere: pain, sobbing, gnashing of teeth
@worldsendless ->, ->>, cond->, when ...
@greenCoder absolutely. The built-in macros are built in and often thought of as justa part of the language. They are stable, standard, and even instrumented. But library-defined macros can be a head-ache, and macros made on a project level are inherently expensive because of the rules they are re-writing.
@greenCoder I discovered `cond- > ` in the last few years, and it changed my coding life! So good!
@worldsendless (Please don't tell him that `clojure.core/let` is a macro 🤫)
