for the life of me I can’t work out what leads you to think this way.
I suspect what is being referred to is that many Haskell people have a very strong academic background and are much more interest in working on Haskell rather than using Haskell to write 'normal' programs.
- yakshaving_jgt 3y agoI've heard this idea many times over the years, but it just hasn't been my experience. Most of the Haskell programmers I have worked with are programmers. Incidentally, they like writing software in Haskell.
- dagw 3y agoIt does match my experience though. Most Haskell programmers I've met are either working at Universities or within research groups at large organisations.
