This is not going to change.
I love Haskell, and I appreciate the effort many are making to evangelize the language, but I am experienced (ie. cynical) enough to believe that it's never going to become truly mainstream.
- kreetx 10y agoThat's my experience as well. As a Haskell user I once felt that I had a secret, that it's so much better than the rest. Now, years later, it seems many pretty much can't tell a difference between a good and a bad language. Or rather, that many pick a language by the language's spread rather than its properties.
- julian_1 10y agoHaskell would be a lot easier to manage in production environments if resource-usage was more predicable - meaning strict by default.
