Free Monads are everywhere. Learning Haskell at this time was such an amazing experience. Haskell has incredible library stability, the kmettoverse feels the same, my is still good enough for most situations, there are new streaming libraries but accomplish the same things as conduit and pipes. LLMs are as decent as you would expect on Haskell, and have helped me debug some situations where I would be fighting GHC usually with some flags turned out. AI has actually has been helpful in learning since in Haskell once you figure something out you solve it for a whole class of problems, the issues is sometimes figuring that one thing out it's so abstract you feel like you are hitting a cliff. Excited to be writing Haskell still in 2026, I hope it continues to avoid success at all cost.
