You should try it some time, the advantages become obvious. You can verify your SQL just by re-running a single sql script. You can use a simple script to auto-generate the functio…

I don't see what that has to do with anything. You made a bizarre assumption that the financial world is hard for haskell to break into, when both history and the current behavior …

You just quoted something saying exactly what I said, while acting like you disagree. Once again, a license is special permission. That is precisely what it is, that is the whole p…

Haskell is already heavily used in finance, and they chose to go this route because all the feedback they were getting from financial firms wanting to use haskell. Your little bubb…

>so why an arbitrary restriction saying once X years are up, you can't sell it anymore (or can't effectively since anyone can have it for free). That is backwards. We set up an arb…

Yes, it is needed. That is what the license is, special permission.

>And Haskell's rules are a pain. How?

I don't know how you think that was the point. He doesn't say anything like that. In fact he takes the exact opposite position when dealing with parsing, saying to just write more …

I think it is worth considering that perhaps obvious architecture is the wrong thing to make, rather than existing languages being wrong for making it.

>and the brags need to be objectively accurate No, it just needs to be convincing. Plenty of convincing lies (or unproven claims) are used to sell programming languages.

This is a good example of how hn is suffering from the real slashdot effect lately. That is, people posting authoritative sounding but completely wrong information and getting upvo…

Depth doesn't come from complex controls, but complex controls are almost always needed to be able to play a game with any depth.

>Just like you wouldn't want to encounter monadic IO in raw >>= form Yes I would. I would much rather see "getLine >>= putStrLn" than a 2 line do block.

100k is huge, period. Whether or not a huge dependency is acceptable depends on the project. Yes, we know it depends on the project, that was the point of the site. The whole point…

Because 100k is not measly, it is huge. And jquery is hundreds of times slower than the perfectly fine native methods.

Because those things are actually hugely important, he spends the rest of the article showing how important they are. He is simply too ignorant to recognize his own ignorance, and …

Irony overload. What was wrong with that paper again? Correlation != causation?

The original article isn't very long. If you want to discuss it, you could, I dunno, try reading it? Yes, it is from google trends. Just like the data on yahoo and google itself th…

Literally nothing you said has anything to do with me, or anything I said. Did you reply to the wrong post by accident or something?
