Comment on The design of the Strict Haskell pragmaparent

Comments

Really? I kind of criticised Haskell records a while ago on IRC (they're a bit crappy given whats possible...) and the answer I got was surprisingly:

"Yeah, we know :( We're working on it though: (links to 3 proposals, one of which will become a part of ghc 8)"

To clarify, I was surprised because when I criticised other languages or ecosystems in similar ways I was met with strong pushback, e.g.

1. Go generics 2. problems of node callbacks
