Claude Code /goal has become unusable. Agents consistently stop after an hour of work despite having clear, verifiable tasks. The only reason to keep using it is for pseudo-frontier tokens
@WillManidis slopaggedon ethics aside, not releasing sora is a big risk. say odds of agi in >4 years is 10% — that means, w/o sora, a 10% chance of losing trillions.
Notice the decline path of Haskell.
Proves my long-standing points:
1. There was a chance for Haskell in 2010-2012.
2. In 2010-2014, haskellers were trying to convince the whole world that CATEGORY THEORY IS THE ONLY TRUE FP AGREE OR GTFO. Didn't work. Gave Haskell an extremely bad look.
3. In 2014-2015, I started saying we need software engineering practices for Haskell and FP. The answer was "Category Theory and Abstract Algebra is our software engineering, you damn midwit!" I said "no" and started writing posts and articles. In 2016, I started writing the book "Functional Design and Architecture."
4. Around 2012-2014, politics and ideology entered functional communities. In the next 4-6 years, this sparked tons of drama, squeezing pragmatic people and businesses away from the FP languages. The peak was around 2020.
5. Inability of Haskell to deliver, its neglect of engineering practices and unjust division of people into worthy and unworthy depending on ideological criteria ruined the momentum that Haskell was losing anyway.
6. In 2020, I published a post, "What killed Haskell, could kill Rust, too," a transcription of Uncle Bob's talk, "What killed SmallTalk, could kill Ruby too," with small substitutions made. The post perfectly aligns with the decline of Haskell in the picture.
Recently, I was blamed for driving businesses away with my skeptical posts and words. That I'm somehow responsible for Haskell's decline. They found a scapegoat and the fact that I wrote three advanced Haskell books doesn't mean anything to them.
But the trends were clear, and the reasons were obvious. Haskell lost its chance and sadly will never have another one.
I want to ask for forgiveness that I was right all the time.
