[Haskell-cafe] Why Haskell?

[Antonio Regidor Garcia]

XD XD XD It seems a sales talk about his STM monad, something like "Haskell is useless but Haskell+STM is in the good direction". So:

Haskell 1.2 (stream-based IO): stateless, useless
Haskell 1.3+ (monadic IO): statefull, but too coarse-grained, still useless
Haskell 98/2010 + STM: more fine-grained statefullness, becoming usefull

Best,

Antonio
