I talked about it in the last thread. The fact that it’s built with Haskell, and the reason Charles gives for why, is a huge red flag for me. It reeks of a guy who is in love with the smell of his own farts — which is also the sense I got from Ben Goertzle.
Basically, he was saying that he could find more developers in more common languages, but Haskell developers were smarter. It’s bullshit. Not only is it bullshit — it’s big time bullshit.
It presents issues in a multitude of areas, not limited to just scaling. I do see scaling being the biggest issue of that design choice.
It’s like a bunch of nerds who sat in a room and said that their ideas are better technically so people will prefer them over potentially less technically sound options that are widely adopted.
Much like how Steve Jobs didn’t give a shit about the technical specs vs the adoption effects of apple. He didn’t care if he was sacrificing technical superiority if not one gave a shit.
Also another reason why I dislike Cardano. Get some real world usage and stop being theoretically superior.
