2025-03-17 03:24:25 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <Liamzee> there's a point to it, since I like treating Haskell as a scripting language and non-idiomatic Haskell, if you're writing in braces you're implying you're being serious and actually caring about engineering quality. But then again, braces aren't that idiomatic either. |

2025-03-17 03:29:34 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <dmjio> Well braces automatically get inserted after the layout pass, so you might be saving the layout pass some work. |
2025-03-17 03:29:35 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | Now if you wanted to build your own Haskell compiler that only uses braces you could bypass the layout pass (and dreaded parse-error case) |
2025-03-17 03:31:39 +0100 | <monochrom> | I tried that, but that's only when my editor haskell mode was primitive and couldn't do good indentation without braces. |

2025-03-17 03:32:26 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <Liamzee> So, there's actually a pragmatic reason to use braces in Haskell, simply to make your code compile less than 1% faster. Got it. |
2025-03-17 03:32:43 +0100 | <monochrom> | I am talking about 20 years ago. |
2025-03-17 03:33:00 +0100 | <monochrom> | Today no editor has an issue. Come on this is 2025 already. |
2025-03-17 03:33:16 +0100 | <monochrom> | And with that, also out with "layout means script kiddies". |
2025-03-17 03:34:42 +0100 | <geekosaur> | the popularity of python for scientific programming shoots that one down anyway |

2025-03-17 03:35:23 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <Liamzee> No, but braces are fully supported by GHC and the Haskell report. Optional braces can be used as a means of expressing... something. |
2025-03-17 03:36:15 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <Liamzee> I mean, you could use braces to indicate prototyping, but that should slow down prototyping, no? But you could make an alternative argument that significant whitespace is idiomatic in Haskell, and stubbornly insisting on braces means you're doing improper Haskell for pragmatic reasons. |
2025-03-17 03:36:50 +0100 | <geekosaur> | or not so pragmatic |
2025-03-17 03:37:05 +0100 | <geekosaur> | imo they make code harder to read (sorry SPJ) |
2025-03-17 03:37:17 +0100 | <geekosaur> | although even SPJ doesn't use braces religiously |

2025-03-17 03:40:20 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <dmjio> I think the braces were just to make the syntax context free, to make happy happy |

2025-03-17 03:40:36 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <Liamzee> No, I'm trying to build a prototype of an Upwork clone (major feature: having the lowest fees attached) in Haskell. One of the plans is to have a team that does prototyping as well as a team that does engineering. This would distinguish whether the code is intended to be kept or needs to be eventually rewritten. |
2025-03-17 03:42:14 +0100 | <int-e> | braces are also nice for lazy code generators... and I seem to recall an account that they have an accessibility benefit in connection with screen readers (which IIUC basically skip whitespace) |
2025-03-17 03:43:46 +0100 | <monochrom> | Yeah mechanical output of Haskell code is vastly simpler with {;}. |
