I didn’t say that I’m personally a smarty-pants Haskell hacker. I said that those people skew smart and capable.
How come @dang is always there like the Batman spotlight when I stray into ad hominem but I always get smashed with this stuff?
You didn't? You said serious Haskell programmers are smart and then pointed out that you worked on the largest Haskell codebase on the planet; we were supposed to not conclude that you are smart, but rather that people working on said codebase are non-serious Haskell programmers?
"Nobody likes to talk about it, but we Haskell programmers are smarter than everyone else, especially bickering Javascript plebs" is kinda surprising it hasn't been flagged as flamebait.
My point about working in a serious industrial setting was that I’ve seen the real deal, up close, and over time.
