most of programming languages still fail to improve upon Lisp
Well, that's question what we define by "improvement". In the sense of business software development they improved thousand times. Not only about languages themselves, but about infrastructure around them.
Even Lisp split to zounds branches, warring to be more functional or more practical or both :)
However in the sense of the language structure, system of typization etc really progress is not impressive.
BTW, if you are curious about Haskell position - the company I mentioned is "Biocad". Check their HH - they are nice fellows and would be glad at least, I think. Though probably you know them already since Haskell world is tight enough :)
Well-versed in the technical side of things thanks to extensive Software Engineering experience. Enthusiastic about Statistical Inference, Machine Learning and Visualizations. He/him.

I meant in terms of language features and semantics as I'm kinda PL geek. :)
I totally agree infrastructure improved a lot.
Yeah, I've figured that out. As you said
😄
Thank you!
