eta looks interesting for Haskell refugees in Java-land..
That being said, any idea why they started from scratch instead of building on or contributing to frege?
- kuschku 9y agoThey had ideological differences, Frege focusing on the Haskell standard, Eta on "whatever GHC does".
- cutler 9y agoPure FP language communities have a lot in common with extreme left movements where small differences can lead to complete forks. There seems to be an equivalence between purity and intolerance.
