I prefer Clojure over Scala and Java. That is the great thing about Polyglot JVM, anyone can choose their tools of choice and I dont need someone tells me their language is better than mines because well everything runs on the same platform, libs and infrastructure, here the only difference is language syntax and language structures but I dont see other differences. The good news is the JVM is the most powerful polyglot platform on earth. In the other hand with Java8 it lets not so much space to Scala I think. Clojure or Groovy are dynamic languages and serve other niches but Scala is trying to replace Java I think that is a wrong path.

No language completely replaces another. Ruby didn't replace Java for example, but it did carve out a major chunk of market share for itself over the last 6 years. Scala will likely to the same.

so jvm was the reason java took over but now the next thing is NaCl

btw , in the article they still believe in the big brother centralised clouds.
