it's easy to learn and speak latin as well.

Yes, but there is very little modern latin slang. While GHC gives us great new extensions of Haskell quite often.

Latin never paid my mortgage. Helped on the SATs though.

I think the point is that there is hardly anybody to speak Latin to, much as there are hardly any actual jobs in Haskell.

And yet I, who am kinda dumb, have managed to find some of each. There's hope out there, beloved Latinists and Haskellers. Never let the fire in your heart burn out.
