This feels like a low-content article. The only thing I can get out of it is: Learning Haskell teaches you language features and patterns that you can take to other languages. As an FP dabbler I agree, but I wish there were more to this.

Is this really long enough to achieve anything? That's like "FP 101 (one semester)" if you don't take the time to do the homework.

Probably. The semester that covered Haskell didn't have enough time to teach me much, but that's because it also covered FSAs, Turing Machines, Lambda Calculus, natural deduction, structural induction and Hoare logic.

You could get so much more done by learning from a practitioner that can show you how to start a project, where the packages live, which ones to use etc.

I might enjoy a paid Haskell course, but thr site didn't seem to offer such.

No, because this is an ad disguised as an article. You are now supposed to leave your job and apply to work there, and then, when you are hired and spend a bit of time working there, you get the Haskell course.

Source: I worked there.
