I am a fan of Clojure, but what would make sense is a really really great example of multicore computing in Clojure vs Java accompanying this article.

I get the feeling that, after reading this article, we should all panic and start learning Clojure as fast as possible because the end is near.

TL;DR - Author throws many claims around (he has a point about many cores) with numbers and stuff and points to Clojure as the only salvation.

He says, is "Clojure the language that will take us into the massively-multicore regime? I don’t know. In fact, I rather doubt it". He does point to it as a step in the right direction.
