Re: Haskell monads If something hurts my brain, I don't want to do it; I don't care about the long-term benefits. Most humans feel the same way and that's why Haskell will never become mainstream.

  No, it's not. Software developers are human. Being a professional does not always override human nature. Statistically, most "professional" software developers will not want to adopt a language with a high cognitive load.
