Nowhere in this quote are these fresh grads equated to "lousy programmers", though (which the flamebaity comment did).

And interpreting the quote charitably I'm going to have to agree with it - I don't think many of my coworkers care enough to get to the point where they'd appreciate everything something like Haskell can do for them.

Have you ever worked with fresh grads? They're definitionally lousy programmers, if we take lousy mean "having a propensity to inject bugs into programs".
