No, he gives reference.

Can you support your claims? Surely the burden on proof is on "Haskell is just as fast".



I believe the answer to your question lies in what Tel said:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8671889

If you avoid recursion and use explicit state passing and create an API with combinators hiding the state passing plumbing you get very fast Haskell.

I believe many people never get to the "write combinators to hide plumbing" part and assume to get very fast Haskell they have to duplicate the explicit state passing everywhere.


Wow, I just noticed the name and saw that all these empty shitposts are the same person.

>No, he gives reference.

Why are you speaking to what someone else knows? Your desire to see your own words exceeds your ability to string together words in a constructive manner.

>Can you support your claims? Surely the burden on proof is on "Haskell is just as fast".

I made no such claim. Your dishonesty is appalling.


"shitposts", "appaling dishonesty", "desire to see my own words", no "ability to sting words in a constructive manner", etc.

Those were aimed at me.

And these were aimed at at the parent:

"you don't actually know", "are just repeating the claims made by the authors", "do you know haskell?", "trolling", "you are doing something wrong".

Plus condescending responses like "if you want you code fixed" and "I'm not going to buy a book just so I can spend the time writing code for you to dismiss" -- when given a reference by the parent. I only intervened because I didn't like your constant condescending tone.

Are you actually here to discuss, or you just came to insult people? If it's the second, maybe try Reddit?


>And these were aimed at at the parent:

And they were questions.

>Are you actually here to discuss

Yes, that is what questions are for. Why are you here? You don't seem to have any intention of trying to contribute in a productive manner.


>Yes, that is what questions are for.

Then don't make them all be passive agressive.
