Clojurians Log v2

Why do a lot of clojure folks prefer adoc to markdown? Just because is better? Prior book publishing know-how carry-over?

I’ve just made the switch for simple reasons like table of contents support, and embedded TIP, NOTE, WARNING callouts

I would not be surprised if the actual correlation would be based on years in tech, and thus carry-over. Currently working on a few years old Java project and surprised to see adoc docs. But setup by people with 10+ years experience.

I spent a lot of time evaluating both and decided asciidoc was just clearly better

I have a strong preference for adoc. It offers a richer set of elements than md. Where I sometimes find myself embedding html in md I can almost always just express what I want in adoc. Adoc can also do nice things like auto-generate a table of contents for your section headings, and supports replacement variables.

I'm looking for a specific blog post about a fictional job interview, in which the interviewee (lisper) implements C in Clojure (IIRC) and solves the interview questions in it. Writing was very well, if I'm not mistaken the author also wrote articles on writing.

Thank you very much.
