What programming languages are used late at night?

One of the biggest(.) Google projects with Haskell is probably Ganeti ( https://github.com/ganeti/ganeti ), which is a mix of python and Haskell and has been around since 2008ish (although Haskell was introduced later, iirc).

We recently moved our main development to github so the repo seems a bit empty, we're certainly happy to get more contributors if you are interested, as the community is fairly small and specialized. Everyone is welcome.

Source: I'm one of the current main developers of the project.

(.) Note: I actually have no idea if it's the 'biggest'.

I helped out a bit with the BCL pretty-printer in my day. (Mostly contributed in-depth code reviews.)

Is Ganeti related to Ganpati? Sorry, it's been a bit since I left Google. Memory is fading.

Not at all, only the name is very similar :)

I just learned that we have a GUTS at my new employer, Bloomberg, too. But it has nothing to do with asking for a monorail between the Sydney offices.

There are only so many words. And many of them similar.

Lol at the citation being the emoji of an anus, where he likely pulled the factoid from.
