I'm surprised at the level of detail presented in this post. Say what you will about the product, but I appreciate lifting the veil on what goes on behind the scenes.

For what it's worth, I've been using Haskell in production at Bitnomial, a financial exchange, and LLMs + Haskell is an extremely productive combo.

Since Opus 4.6, LLMs have been pretty clever at using fancy types with libraries like Servant and Beam. The expressiveness of the types, combined with feedback from the compiler, means that agents converge quickly to something that works. I don't think I've noticed agents having to run the compiler so often that compilation speed is an issue.

This is a critical piece of information to convince me to switch to this.

I'm quite interested though!

Also, what's the context of "Built in Canada"? What's the point of mentioning this? Should I expect the results to be better for Canadian content?

We're always happy to hear about pain points!

For example, one thing that is a friction point at my own job is knowledge of tooling for performance tuning and optimization. It's not that Haskell doesn't have this tooling, it's just not well-known.

Is there anything in particular you would need?
