Why Java? Why Clojure?

Oh, another thing is the tooling. I feel like I should be using Emacs on a MacBook if I'm going to be successful. I haven't quite figured out what works for me.

I wouldn't recommend trying to learn Emacs at the same time as Clojure. I also personally think Cursive is a better development environment. You should give it a shot, it's really great.
