If the advantages of using Haskell (or any other language) are so clear cut, wouldn't the market automatically switch to Haskell?
Clearly the fact that the most of software is not written in Haskell shows that Haskell is not the silver bullet for all software development as this article and other FP pundits claim it to be.
- Jtsummers 13y agoIf the advantages of using Haskell (or any other language) are so clear cut, wouldn't the market automatically switch to Haskell? That's a specious argument, you're assuming that "the market" is infallible, which is far from evident. I'm not going to say that Haskell is great for all or even half of all applications out there, but market acceptance is not a valid argument against it.
