Of course, if I was to join the #12in23 challenge proposed by the #Exercism folks, the first checkbox to be ticked was going to be #Elixir.
I'm not sure that there are 11 more languages I want to get a bite from in 2023, but this might just be the nudge I needed to finally pay some attention to the #Clojure, #Rust or #Go tracks!

And one of the tools was Emacs Live
https://github.com/overtone/emacs-live
It was a .emacs folder that you could just drop in your home folder and that made Emacs a georgous IDE for Clojure
Requiring people to learn to deal with Emacs before they can write a single line of the language they're approaching is a stupid punishment
