I write useful and novel software. I'm doing that right now in Haskell.
It's also deployed to Heroku. You wouldn't know it's written in Haskell if I didn't tell you.
Saying that X (CoffeeScript) proponents make more useful/novel software than Y (Haskell) proponents is pretty crazy.
- ajross 14y agoI said no such thing. I said coffeescript proponents don't whine about it. There's a culture in mainstream open source about "getting things done". People make stuff and show it off, and the value is what they made, not how they did it. Haskell lacks that culture, as evidenced by the premise behind this question.

- jamesbritt 14y agoHaskell may lack the promotional aspect. I'm a casual Haskell enthusiast and have no trouble finding interesting useful Haskell apps. But that may be because I now know where to look. Or have taken the time to find things. So Haskell has a culture of making things but may lack the "show it off" part.
