I program Haskell every day and don't feel like I've been shoehorned into being "an architecture and abstraction astronaut". I do feel I've been gently nudged away from worst practices[1] though.
Could you elaborate more about what you mean, maybe giving some examples?

- throwawaymaths 2y agoMaybe just scarring from working with haskellers who are writing c++. The project has been delayed probably months due to shitty abstractions. Has never met a self imposed (generous) deadline. They keep breaking the up stack contract that I depend on. Why they didn't just choose c for this project is infuriating. Literally was in a meeting where a new hire was given the green light because "she was a language lawyer but not enough of a language lawyer to get in the way". Fuck that.
- tome 2y agoDo you mean you worked with people who were Haskell enthusiasts but were programming in C++?
