Haskell seems cool, but if I’m going to invest time in a different programming paradigm, I’m more curious about APL/K/J. They seem more useful as well (to me).

- _bxg1 7y agoPractically speaking what I've heard is that the value of learning Haskell isn't so that you can then go use Haskell, it's so that you can then go write code in other languages as if it were in Haskell
- haolez 7y agoI think that’s unfair. Haskell is used in the real world to solve really hard issues, like anti-spam at Facebook. I’m simply more impressed by array-oriented languages :)
