"If you ask me what is bad about Haskell, it is the difficulty in finding developers and difficulty on making other developers to work with apps written in Haskell."
This makes me wonder even more what's wrong with it! I doubt the learning curve is scaring THAT many people away, since employable programmers already demonstrated a willingness to learn hard things. It seems to me that there must be something bad I don't know about the language.
- bgar 11y ago> there must be something bad I don't know about the language. No, there isn't. People are just scared because of what they hear from others who failed at learning it, and who now say negative things about the language to feel better about themselves. People who fail to learn it are too entrenched in another paradigm or aren't able to think abstractly enough. It's not the language's fault. It might be partly because they read the wrong learning materials.
