With great reluctance, I am over the last year starting to agree with your position on Haskell.
For many years I have had a lot of fun with Haskell, doing some NLP, and web stuff with Yesod and Scotty.
However, I am so much more production in a concise dynamic language like Ruby that I am re-evaluating my fondness for Haskell. Also, to a small degree, good IDEs like RubyMine catch some simple errors for you.
I, like Elben Shira, hope for radical new technologies that make me feel like I am developing in Ruby with the safety and speed of Haskell. I am looking forward to the future.
