If you search for Haskel jobs a large number seem to be block chain based. When you look further a lot seem to be around smart contracts. If you are interested in language design smart contracts are an interesting research area, you are basically getting paid well to design and research your own language. What I fail to see is any viable product on the other end. There’s a few companies I can think off who have been recruiting Haskel developers for smart contracts but I can’t see a product, devs are just taking paid work in a language they like using and these companies are sucking up vc funding. I refuse to speak to recruiters about a blockchain company heavily recruiting where I am as I am not smart enough for language design/research and more importantly I don’t see a viable product. I know a few other friends/colleagues refuse to speak to the same company due to being blockchain/not seeing a product. When I see things like this it also reaffirms my thoughts, VC backed companies heavily pushing through blockchain but it’s not a ready product https://smallcaps.com.au/asx-delays-launch-blockchain-settlement-technology/ https://smallcaps.com.au/asx-delays-launch-blockchain-settle...
