My main programming language in undergrad was Haskell (long story, I was single-handedly taught the majority of my computer science courses from an elderly Canadian professor in the UK who loves Haskell/functional programming and is squarely in academia). However, whenever I‘ve told people that I know Haskell they’d either: a) laugh and ask why that was my main programming knowledge or b) joke I should work in a “Haskell basement shop” (?). I’ve never personally applied my Haskell knowledge after I graduated college or thought to.
So this may seem like a dumb question, but I’m genuinely curious, what do all of you here use Haskell for in real life, not including for school/academics?
I use it for parsing and data conversion. I'd like to do more, but that's really the space where I can make the case that it's the best tool for the job.
