You haven't engaged in the thing that matters: programming. You went off on tangents about philosophy and monads and set theory and pure mathematics, when my whole point is that they don't help the vast majority of programmers write programs.
Nowhere is it implied that you, specifically, need to use Haskell in your work.
I don't. I tried it and it was interesting but not useful.
If you can't see why monads are useful, why not ask about that?
My point is about the larger issue that after 30 years, people are still trying to explain step one of this language. In that time entire other languages have exploded and withered. At some point the expectations that this is healthy needs to be looked at. I like that haskell exists, but it isn't overall a good tool for making software.
No I didn't, I said haskell was invented.
Are you walking back that claim? Fine.
Quote me where I said that.
I've tried to engage with you in good faith
