  > What?? Galois, Facebook, IBM, Twitter, AT&T, Bank of America, Barclays Capital, NVIDIA, Microsoft and GitHub use Haskell. So? The usage of Haskell within the entire industry is so small it's not even a rounding error. It's hard to make the argument that the industry has accepted it when the industry usage is too tiny to even measure properly.

    Please define "the industry" and explain what credentials you have to know what "they" want.

It sounds ridiculous that you need "credentials" before you'd believe that Javascript, Python, Java or C# programmers, programs, projects and work doesn't each outnumber Haskell roughly 100 to 1. Just about any metric you choose to use to evaluate what the industry uses, Haskell has so little usage that it's literally difficult to measure. Job postings, TIOBE, RedMonk, SO survey, google-fight, you name it - Haskell is nowhere near rounding error percentages. Maybe you should ask yourself why it doesn't show up in significant numbers on any metric rather than asking people what credentials they have.
