I don't know if you've worked with a production Haskell code base but it cannot be over stated what a poor decision operator overloading is. if they got rid of that it would immediately make Haskell an order of magnitude more prac

I whole heartedly agree with you on the convenience of go routines. I haven't been following the ocaml concurrency sorry; are they implementing a similar concurrency model?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a9xAKttWgP4 that's a trick though - no one uses interpreters like that. for most people they're for experimentation, which is exactly what i was saying i'm able to do with go.

it's funny coming from python i missed the repl for the first few weeks but go's insane compilation speed almost completely obviates the need for one.

you use intuition to come up with the argument. then you use a proof to convince others.
