It's not just you, I came here to say the same thing. I just feel dumb when I try to read Haskell, though I've been using Clojure in production for over 5 years.
- friedbrice 7y agoWhile I feel like writing Clojure for 5 years would improve one's ability to /write/ Haskell, I feel it'd have almost no impact on one's ability to read Haskell. With all pros (e.g. local reasoning, referential transparency, no destructive updates) and all cons (e.g. tons of marshalling/converting, piles of imports, shitty records) aside for a moment, I think you learn to read Haskell like you learn to read any other programming language: by writing a lot of it.
