By own outcomes, do you me something like a percentage of sales or something?

Interesting, in what ways is it a second class citizen? I tried googling it, but didn't find much.

Yes, it's definitely much easier to get up and running with Java than it is with Haskell. This includes everything from setting up the JDK, setting up your IDE, to building and deploying your applications.

If I had to choose the three big factors that contributed to my gradual loss of interest in Haskell, they were these:
* the stylistic neophilia that celebrates esoteric code but makes maintenance a chore
* the awkward tooling that makes working with Haskell in a day-to-day sense clunkier
* the constant changes that require sporadic but persistent attention and cause regular breakages
Valid points. Back in 2010-2012, I spent a lot of time learning Haskell. The language itself is great, but the documentation and tooling was challenging to work with. The community went from Cabal (and the infamous Cabal hell) to Stack, and back to Cabal. Overall, the situation has improved.
On the other hand, other programming languages have incorporated elements of functional programming. Take Java, for instance. It has added features like Streams, functions, lambdas, algebraic data types, records, and pattern matching. While Java's syntax isn't as elegant as Haskell's, it does include the fundamental concepts of functional programming.

Yeah, it's interesting to see them become a part of Java with records, sealed types, and pattern matching. However, I haven't seen much uptake yet.

I use neovim. The plugin system has really grown.
* I use Packer for plug-in managment: https://github.com/wbthomason/packer.nvim
* I use Mason to install LSPs, linters and formatters: https://github.com/williamboman/mason.nvim
* I use nvim-treesitter for better highlighting: https://github.com/nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter

I would say that was my experience as well. It actually took me a while to understand why I would use classes and objects.

Really? I'm a self taught programmer, and one the best MOOC courses I took was How to Code taught by Gregor Kiczales.[^1] I believe it's based on HtDP. I thought it was great experience. Although, I did no know a little Python coming in.

I was just reading a study that said: "Developers do not become fluent for at least three years in large projects."[^1] Which is sad cause I'm one of those people that like to master their work, but it feels unfair if your making less than others who just joined.

I'm looking forward to the full implmentation of C++20. I'm just a junior programmer, but I've just started playing around with modern C++ and it feels all more safe than I was initially planning. I was expecting more undefinded behaviour and memory leaks. Working in C++, at least for small scripts, didn't feel much more burdensome than Python.

Wouldn't this be something similiar to Monads? I remember someone gave a talk and described Monads as "worlds". (I forgot which video it was). So a function goes into a "world" does all it's stuff, then it exits and comes down.

And what type of app is this, if you don't mind sharing?
