  The big problem with someone who has programmed almost exclusively with
a language like Haskell for the past years is that he will be very biased
towards the features and strong points of that language, and will then be
constantly pulling his hair when trying to code something in C++. "Why do
I have to do it like this? It's stupid. Why can't I do it like in Haskell?"
