How to Sell Haskell (from Chicago Meetup)

[Trevor Riles]

Found these slides on the haskell subreddit, thought they were fun.

They're interesting and a valuable read.

My only note is I think their notion of Agile is a bit
off... It seems their impressions of it are based on a poor, dogmatic
implementation of Agile. Many of their goals are also goals of
Agile. Agile, improperly implemented, may seem very "deadline" oriented,
but the whole point of it is to not be firefighting... So I'm unsure
about that aspect of the slides.

The rest of it though provides a good tone to frame the discussion about
"Why Haskell".

That was an excellent presentation. I'll be referencing this multiple times in the future. Thanks for posting!
