Fifteen years into my career, and I'm finally realizing that "expressive" languages are practically unreadable.

unfamiliar languages are practically unreadable

I don't see how that's any better for a haskell shop. i got some empathy but you chose a rough life.

As a haskell programmer, all of that was easily readable.

As a non-Haskell programmer, all of that was easily readable. Straightforward words for functions makes that pretty easy.

Not all programming languages are obvious derivatives of C. Haskell is pretty readable once you spend some time getting to know the syntax.

The semantics are very different. It's much closer to a mathematical proof than a C program with different syntax, in terms of its lazy evaluation.

How much time have you spent with functional programming languages?

We once hired a F# developer to write Clojure and within a week, he was writing some of the clearest Clojure I've read.

Learn paradigms not languages...
