Because Haskell is a shitty language.

Jane Street still uses OCaml.
Maybe Scarf just was made by shitty engineers.

>>109246351
You can learn a lot from haskell and use haskell's solutions in other languages. But there are no silver bullet solutions in software development so if you build your programming language around a single paradigm then it will be unusable for anything practical.

haskell is cool as fuck but only for academic exercises

Haskell and other ML-likes exist because mathematicians can't into real programming.

yes it's always raping my ssd on arch with constant updates like every fucking day

deserved

>>109247484
that is not what function means. it just means a function takes one argument, returns one value, and does not modify data. it is not a mathematical equation.
>>
>>109246351
My only "problem" with haskell is that every time I check for updates it looks like the star wars scrolling intro letters and 99% of the lines are haskell-*

i saw it on hacker news too
it was just something about the workflow not being suited for AI
>>
>>109248587
true kek
my main gripe with it has been memory related optimizations. tard wrangling ghc to not allocate memory for existing structures that already exist and just need to be updated is an exercise in futility.

Haskell isn't OCaml.

Since nobody is going to link the article nor read it, here's a TL;DR:
>haskell compilation is slow
>we're going all in on vibecoding and it's annoying how compliation takes more time than code generation
>I wish haskell pandered to AI agents with its docs and error messages

Scarf is "a company focused on open source usage analytics".

Very boring stuff frankly
>>
>>109247484
Weirdly every mathematician I've seen struggled with functional programming and did everything imperatively.
>>
>>109246351
read the article, he's leaving haskell because the compile times are too long for his ai agents lmao
>>
>>109247484
Because it's all a grift, and idiots fell for it. Haskell was created as a non-real-world solution to real-world problems. It's a solution in search of a problem.
>>
>>109247484
Exquisite bait

>>109246385
It's a necktie for warmth.
