Sorry, but that's nonsense, go and try Haskell for a year and you will have barely scratched the surface.



Well maybe, but does this seriously matter?

That's a very bad thing to spread. Haskell might be deep, but after using it for a whole year in production, any developer worth his salt would know enough of it to build non trivial things.

This type of comments unfortunately keep developers away from Haskell. Haskell is no C++, you can actually learn it, and it is a very good language.


Barely scratched the surface of what the language can do or the possible insights available by using Haskell?

I ask because I have done exactly what I described above, both with Haskell and Haskell frameworks.
