Anti-LLM Sentiment Considered Harmful

I can vouch that, tuned correctly, a Haskell program can be extremely performant. Optimizing Haskell programs remains a somewhat esoteric topic, but it is not out-of-reach. Moreover, attempting to write highly-performant concurrent software is asinine in practically any software stack, but Haskell makes it possible to succeed without too much headache.

I doubt that we can make a blanket statement about people switching to Rust, but if it is because of performance ceiling, then I’d like to see the cost/benefit analysis.

Edit: to make this post on-topic, my experience is that LLMs are not good at optimizing Haskell code. Good engineering is still required there.
