yeah, i used to find ddg good enough for normal searces, and a bit off for specialised e.g. api help, for which a !g was necessary nowadays, i get different results for those specialised searces, but they aren't better. i much more rar

over a long enough time frame, it seems his view is standard. nowadays, there's not really a haskell standard other than ghc. there's other haskells than ghc (e.g. ghcjs) but they're all forks of ghc. research is achieved by

it's hard to call the sine qua non of a language a bad design decision. if it were, the language would be dead. haskell survives because it's a lazy purely functional language with some industry support. bad design decisions have

if you want to skip jsx, just write React.createElement(ComponentName, props) and your done. jsx just makes it a bit simpler to read, so no one feels tempted by horrible angular like template languages shudder
