Each week, we answer a different question about Clojure and functional programming.

If you have a question you'd like us to discuss, tweet @clojuredesign, send an email to [email protected], or join the #clojuredesign-podcast channel on the Clojurians Slack.

This week, the question is: "How can I save my data from serialization?" We record our thoughts on the many trade-offs we have encountered preserving our data when it leaves our programs.

Selected quotes:

"Clojure has the best data structures on the planet."
"One of the reasons why JSON is so popular is because XML was so overbearingly hard."
"XML decided that trees aren't dimensional enough, so they added another dimension in attributes."
"Serialization formats aren't for humans, Nate, what are you talking about?!"
"EDN isn't horrible to look at because it's just Clojure data structures."
"We don't want freezer burn!"
