A poetic or self-evaluatedly clever riposte is fairly useless if it doesn't
somehow embody a relevant point. We aren't asking a baker about internal
combustion engines' function, we're asking a baker if they have
recommendations for a good oven.

If you fancy yourself a professional programmer, you had better have some
understanding of how to get your program to run in the real world. Nor clever
(as you think) retorts, nor labored and inapplicable analogies will save your
software. Knowing how to set a DNS server might. The question is entirely on
topic for clj.programmer. (Note the emphasis on programmer - it's for people
who want results, not fanboys for labored or spaghetti languages.)

Joe, if you want to discuss this with people who will take your question
seriously, please feel free to do so. I apologize that I do not know how to
answer your question, but I support your right to ask it. At least among us
practical-minded folk.
