Haskell Made Me Quit Programming

Text on the meme

8 years ago, when I started learning Haskell, I didn't understand why not every single program is written in Haskell. After verbose Java and too low-level C++, Haskell felt like a blessing ✨ I understand it now. Took me a while, though. What is your preference now? My preference now is not to do any programming at all and play video games instead. I'm currently enjoying Cyberpunk 2077 🎮

What it means

A Twitter exchange about a programmer who once admired Haskell after struggling with verbose Java and low-level C++, but eventually decided that the best programming language is no programming at all. The punchline is that he now prefers playing Cyberpunk 2077 instead of coding, turning a technical discussion into a relatable programmer burnout joke.
