There is actually not that much crazy stuff you must learn early on. The problem with Haskell is that it's hard for beginners to know what stuff they should avoid.
- platz 9y agoyes, especially when bloggers and conference talks show off that edgy stuff. People begin to get attracted to Haskell because of those things. Things have changed a bit too over the years. I've heard of folks that burned out on haskell after wrestling with Arrows, and obscure arrow operators. Also, remember iteratees?
