The FTP fiasco

Isn't it hilarious? But the real question is, why are Haskallers so stupid? seriously, it's almost like they want to shit all over what took them decades to build...

I think that basically haskell implicitly imports this "Prelude" file with some basic stuff like list data types in it.

And after like 20 years of everything being ok they decided to completely change the prelude and break loads of old code so that everyone is forced to use these weird new typeclasses that Lens has (the shittest snakeoil library ever written).

Another option would have been just making a library that people can import but they have dominated the haskell world and taken control of it and want everyone to know that so they forced it upon everyone that uses GHC instead of making it a choice.

People are afraid to say that they are unhappy about this because there's a very small number of people that you have to stay buddy-buddy with who manage 90% of haskell jobs.. and you don't want to have to write java instead do you?

Discoverability also doesn't matter actually. The case is SPJew wants to make FOLDABLE^tm and TRAVERSABLE^tm into fundamental type classes and forces everyone to learn their interfaces, so that it's in turn possible to force absolutely everything to implement them. ``Everything is a FOLDABLE<sup>tm</sup>! Everything is a TRAVERSABLE<sup>tm</sup>!''. A new ``paradigm'' right here shoven deep into the old Haskal dogs' throats.
That fucking jew. I knew he would betray me for the LENS^tm fuckers' shekels since day ONE.
