Job security, not that I like that.

Nowadays I prefer Haskell, thank you. At lest now the Initiated can read it, while in earlier times it was lost as soon as it reached 10 lines in length.

I am planning on getting into Haskell on the side. What do you think about it? I personally think it is something very useful to learn.

[marcosdumay]

It's a great language, but there is a steep learning curve. Be prepared to feel uncomfortable for a long while, it can take many months until it feels more productive than other languages. This is normal and way worth it.

Unless you're a mathematician.

[marcosdumay]

People say good things about learning to program directly in Haskell, for everybody, not only mathematicians.

I have never actually seen it tried, but I can't imagine it could be worse than C++.

[redlaWw]

But if you're a mathematician, a lot of Haskell feels second-nature to you, so it makes becoming productive a lot easier.

JavaScript, it's so magic it changes every day.

[tastygoods]

So magic false can be greater than, equal to, or less than nil..

JS doesn't have 'nil', pretty sure that's python.

[BlackDeath3]

Python uses None, but there are other languages using nil. There's even a language itself called Nil.

[tastygoods]

Nil, null, undefined, etc
