What Hacker News says

I have been working with Clojure for 5+ years now. For CLI applications babashka has worked quite well for us. Would love to know more about the problems you faced. In my experience whenever I faced such issues - it has been because I am not using it well. For CLOS kind of things I have found https://github.com/camsaul/methodical library quite well and the performance is better than default multimethods in core clojure implementation.
