What do you mean? That's my point exactly. While Haskell has that now, they didn't always have it.
If a programming language is created in 2019 they can certainly instantly incorporate insights from existing technology in their design an plans. However, that doesn't mean that any programming language/compiler project started today will instantly have all of those features. Things take time in each new framework.
Haskell didn’t have it originally. Ok. But what do you think that says about whether it’s a new idea or not? What’s the connection? Why mention it in this thread about whether it's a new idea or not?
At what point did anyone claim it was a new idea? The blog post cites prior art in the very first paragraph. Not in a footnote—in the main text. The top post here cites several other languages with a similar model. This entire thread reads like a bunch of dudes who are really dying to "well, actually" someone.
It's extremely debatable that Haskell is compute-oriented. I know that Haskell people like to talk about doing numerical computing in Haskell, but in reality it does not seem to be a thing. No one has ever used Haskell to implement large scale scientific computations on supercomputers, for example.
