Re:On Learning Rust and Go: Migrating Away from Python by bayesian_horse on Sunday March 24, 2019 @10:07AM (#19476400)
Oh sure, but Haskell and OCaml are much less popular than Python, with consequences for community building, recruiting, reusing existing code bases etc.

The popular statically typed languages which are actually Python's competitors are for example C++, C#, Java and the like.

Sure as hell they are more verbose. Even Typescript was extremely intimidating to me when I started to try and understand Typescript code bases.

And I am NOT going to try and teach Haskell or Ocaml as a first programming language...
