Also when I gave a presentation on #clojurescript on my pre-previous workplace (all collegues were "IT newcomers") showing the interactive development (REPL) and moldable development instead of recompiling all the time they was NOT impressed neither interested. And the core dialog was: «But it's possible to do all the shown with REPL with just browser's console! — Are you doing it? — Well... No»

It's like interactivity was there glimmering from the beginning and them just went away and they've used to it.

@shegeley this kind of frustration I understand.

It's important to keep in mind that both newcomers and senior developers can't comprehend what they don't know. Just like a city boy can't understand how hard farm life is until they move to the farm :P (I joke)

The reality is the cybernetics of computers hasn't changed since the 1970s and the early lisp machines and smalltalk mainframes from back then are way more powerful environments but power is not commercial viable tragically
