      Oh my, you haven't seen some of the PureScript code I've seen recently. I'd *kill* for the tiniest bit of verbosity.pic.twitter.com/zDDeBIwZCm

      That appears to be gzipped content - can you show the code after you de-compress it???

      Actually, I can't, because the famed verbosity of FP extends to the documentation. From it (attached), you can see that the `zoom` function zooms.pic.twitter.com/nT6CreTGMg

      You are of course supposed to be able to understand it by reading the types, which merely requires understanding `Focusing` and `Star`.pic.twitter.com/zk8RutKNYh

      I wish we'd stop calling that stuff "functional programming" - I feel like it's giving cool languages like Elixir a bad name :P

      It's not the language (I don't think); it's community standards. The Elixir crew seems to me have made a conscious decision to make the language and ecosystem approachable, esp. for a target audience of Rails programmers.

      The Haskell-derived static FP world (aside from Elm) is anachronistic, in that it feels very 80's/90's: when you had to *earn* your entry. (Much like the hazing medical residents go through.) And documentation was not held in, um, high esteem.

      That's the most brutal, merciless takedown of the Haskell world I've ever seen.

      Hmm. OK. For me, aging as I am, getting stuck with your habits, and transmitting them to those who admire you, seems unremarkable. It would be surprising if an intellectual tradition that started decades ago *wasn't* mired in anachronism.

      The fact that Haskellers are cool with this page, despite the fact that it mindlessly slurs a language used by millions of people, and despite the fact that the page is full of mistakes, tells me a lot. https://wiki.haskell.org/The_JavaScript_Problem …

      There is no page called "The Python problem". This page should have been deleted years ago. It reflects poorly on Haskell users, and furthers the perception among many people that they probably won't be welcome.

          Other than the name of the page, I don't see anything too terrible there? (I'm not a part of the Haskell community and I dislike it for other reasons)
