Haskell is abstract, and very different from other popular languages, but I actually find it very intuitive. At the very least, the type system makes it extremely predictable.
I didn't imagine a joke would attract this many people defending Haskell. LOL.
I personally would say I hate Haskell the least among most of the PL I know, maybe except ocaml. Haskell is probably the second if not the most popular programming language (not including proof assistant) in my field, next to Ocaml; and I have been teaching it for couple years. My work is also heavily involved with category theory, so I don't personally mind the category theory jargon.
But all of these doesn't mean Haskell is without its flaws. For this post in particular, I am referring to one of the long standing debate in the haskell community of whether Haskell user and developer has a tendency to overuse exotic infix operators: https://wiki.haskell.org/Haskell_programming_tips/Discussion#Use_syntactic_sugar_wisely
Haha, an actual category theorist! You should have gone with "we have more than one of those in Haskell" or something, then. As it is, it really just reads like someone who thinks higher-order functions are too hard of a concept, and that the whole language is therefore garbage.
welp, karma is not a thing here, nor do I care about them. It is great to see people loving haskell, it is a decent language <3.
