Past and Present of Haskell with Simon Peyton Jones

As part of our interview series, we got the fantastic opportunity to interview Simon Peyton Jones, who was a key contributor to the design of Haskell and one of the lead designers of Glasgow Haskell Compiler (GHC).

In the interview, we discussed the past, present, and future of Haskell, Haskell’s benefits and downsides, GHC, walking the line between Haskell being a research and industry language, and multiple other topics.

This is an audio-only version of the interview. You can watch the original on our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4RuLzL_q0zs
