What are you talking about? Haskell is 30 years old.

You must have missed the part about "the world as it exists" and "fast development" and pretty much the entire point of the post you're replying to.

Haskell remains impractical for many use cases, it is not used much outside of academia, it's not documented to be used outside of academia, and it didn't even have a working package manager until a few years ago.

Yeah. And you need 20 language extensions to sit at the top of your every file to do anything useful with it.
