There really is Haskell group-think here. I commented on this story nearly a day late, and the only people that scour through these comments downvoting everything remotely anti-Haskell are the Haskell fanatics. These are also not my pet annoyances. These problems have been pointed out in the past (which you would have known if you even bothered to read the article). The fact that Haskell has done nothing about them for years is damning evidence. > You don't like Haskell or OCaml, clearly. So don't use them! This is where you and many Haskell fanatics are wrong. Just because I am criticizing Haskell doesn't mean I don't like Haskell. I want it to be better so people will stop using languages like Java with a last generation paradigm. Instead of taking the criticism in stride, people like you attack the person, and even managing to criticize Simon Peyton Jones, one of the designers of Haskell, for saying something bad about the language.
