>I just don't find Haskell ... to be as productive as many would suggest >I have ... very little experience with Haskell So, how would you know?

I don't know with 100% certainity, but it's a moderately confident conclusion from my little experience.

  It's an incorrect conclusion that requires further education and experience before you can be sure your subjective experience of productivity truly is that poor.

    please, this is getting old. Haskell is one of those languages for people who want to show off how clever they are instead of just getting on with developing applications that actually do useful things efficiently.

      I hope you are trolling. Most Haskeller's value getting things done over being clever and actually actively avoid being clever. In your other comment you point out that many of PHP detractors have not used it or have very little experience. Do you have experience using haskell? If not, you are being hypocritical. Please stop.

      >Haskell is one of those languages for people who want to show off how clever they are Yes, that's what banks are most known for. Showing off how clever they are and not doing anything useful. Facebook and google certainly fit that profile as well right?

  The point of graphs like these (aside from making a joke) is to describe the learning curve. These graphs admit that the beginning of haskell is a nightmare, but claim that eventually you have "unbounded" productivity. It seems rather hard to evaluate the tail end from "little experience".

  I am suggesting that your confidence is misplaced. Having little experience in something means you should have little confidence in your knowledge of that thing.

      You aren't even responding to the words you quoted. Read it carefully. With little experience, you have no way to know if your impression is accurate or not. So your confidence in your knowledge should be low. And this is of course pretending you have very little experience, when in fact you have absolutely none and are repeating the same worn out tired old FUD that tricked me into not using haskell 8 years ago.
