but one could argue that the democratization of programming will
indeed marginalize "hair shirt" tech like haskell in favor of
something accesible to the wider public
Maybe. Frankly I don't much care. Haskell may become more accessible
to the wider public, or it may not. But it seems pretty clear that we
need something *like* Haskell to be able to effecitvely program the
devices of the future, and whatever language that turns out to be,
I'll just be happy that I don't need to use C anymore!
