The uncomfortable truth of Haskell

Name: Anonymous 2010-04-05 16:29

Haskell is like the Emperor's New Clothes of programming.

Only people who are very smart like to program in Haskell, ergo, every programmer pretends to like Haskell (while actually implementing everything in Python or Perl). I've never used a bit of useful software actually implemented in Haskell, though.

You mean xmonad?

Yeah haskell pretty much doesn't have much in the ways of software out there.... but.... If you are talking about gpgpu and financial software, there is a lot of stuff built in haskell in those fields.

Haskell was designed to be not popular. Get used to it.

Yeah, we need to come up with a word more intimidating than monad.

Polyvariadic arguments.

If it's in the C preprocessor, it's not that advanced a concept.

Catamorphic monadic type functor.

Nope, I think that whatever word/phrase we use should actually make sense. Perhaps we should punt this question to /sci/

I vote for ``pointed endofunctor''.
