| 2024-10-06 16:10:50 +0200 | <tomsmeding> | for programming in haskell specifically, apart from enjoyment: haskell is better at some tasks, Rust is better at others, C++ even has some tasks it's better at (if only for library suppor) |
| 2024-10-06 16:10:06 +0200 | <tomsmeding> | just for having more ways of looking at a problem |
| 2024-10-06 16:09:57 +0200 | <tomsmeding> | Guest6817: the paradigm shift is the thing that will _help_ you -- as in, learning to program in this different paradigm will make you a better programmer even in other languages |

| 2024-10-06 16:05:15 +0200 | <geekosaur> | but popularity and even direct usage don't tell the whole story. secretly, haskell's conquests are from within: more and more languages are sprouting things taken from it |
| 2024-10-06 16:04:27 +0200 | <geekosaur> | practically? it certainly is used, although it's no JS in terms of popularity |

| 2024-10-06 15:48:45 +0200 | <Guest6817> | How's the Haskell external library support? Good enough for (most) random things I wanna do with Haskell? |
| 2024-10-06 15:46:58 +0200 | <Guest6817> | So all in all, other than the scary learning cliff that Haskell has, nothing should bother me if I actually learn it well |
| 2024-10-06 15:46:18 +0200 | <identity> | any tool will hinder you if you don't know which way to hold it |
| 2024-10-06 15:45:53 +0200 | <identity> | Guest6817: haskell-specific parts will only hinder you while you are unfamiliar with them |
| 2024-10-06 15:44:59 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <thirdofmay18081814goya> haskell will fix your marriage |
| 2024-10-06 15:43:31 +0200 | <yushyin> | rust has some influences from haskell and other funcprog languages, so you might even recognize some parts of that while learning haskell |
| 2024-10-06 15:43:11 +0200 | <Guest6817> | The only concern I had till now is whether any part of the Haskell (the immutability, everything as functions, the arcane things called 'monads' or whatever they're called) will hinder me in working on a problem where a imperative language wouldn't? |
| 2024-10-06 15:40:58 +0200 | <Lears> | Guest6817: Learning a new language (Haskell) as opposed to another dialect of a language you already know (C, Rust, etc) will be a lot harder. It will also be much more fun and rewarding. |
| 2024-10-06 15:40:42 +0200 | <Guest6817> | 'Alienation' is actually a great term to describe how I feel looking at some of the past codes I've written |
| 2024-10-06 15:40:41 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <thirdofmay18081814goya> gaze at the masses of programmers, typing away. one asks: how can they be so close to this thing that they call their life's work, yet at the same time be so far from it? |
