Well, I imagine that there are large applications being used at places
like Galois or Credit Suisse that are just proprietary. As for open
source, I guess the largest application is probably GHC itself.
GHC is certainly the only large application that *I* can think of...
I don't know. It seems that Erlang is slowly taking over the world and
all the rest of it, but you never hear anything about Haskell. Shame,
really...
To me, C is the pinacle of everything that is wrong with computer
programming.
At this point I can only say that we disagree and bow out of this tangent.
"Tangent" I will agree on. ;-)
