Why would anyone willingly used Haskell?

Seemingly everyone's main complaint with Python is FIOC, yet it doesn't give a shit whether you use tabs or spaces so long as it's consistent.

Try to use tabs when I damn well want to in Haskell, and it gives me an I DON'T THINK SO, TIM without feeding me the actual error. Good job, Haskell crew.

It's me way of being smug and feeling superior amongst wannabe programmers.

... and fooling yourself to think you know any better than they do... you better stop now and read your SICP today so feelings turn into real superiority one day...

In Haskell, tabs align to the next multiple of 8 characters. Just don't use tabs, it will make things much easier.

If you don't want the indentation based syntax in Haskell, there is a secondary one that allows you to indent however the fuck you want.

haskell syntax doesn't use indentation at all.
if you don't know the difference between indentation and alignment, you're a fucking idiot and should go back to using a manual typewriter.

haskell syntax doesn't use sense at all.
if you don't know the difference between sense and nonsense, you're a fucking idiot and should go back to using Lisp.

I've completed all the SICP exercises in Haskell.

Yes I am sure creating streams in Haskell was enlightening work.

Is this your way of saying I have read SICP or do you actually know haskell ?

It is my way of saying that an entire section of the book that is useful outside of lazy languages doesn't have a lot to say for it in a lazy language.

How well does Haskell perform on the Constraint Solver and Logic Simulator?
