I read that book many years ago, but I haven't looked into Haskell for a long time. Is it still relevant today? I imagine many things have changed in 12 years!

At the end of the day most people will only care about how the tool is solving the problem and how cheaply. A cheap, slow, dirty solution today tends to win over a expensive, quick, elegant one next year.
Now there are still some people writing ASM, and a lot of them as a hobby. Maybe in a few years writing code from scratch will be seen in the same way, something very few people have to do in restricted situations, or as a pastime.
