Who knows, 2015 may also be the year of the linux desktop, unless HURD is also ready for prime time.

Perl 6 relies on Haskell no?
Why not just learn Haskell?
It seems to be influenced by Javascript, so no I won't use the same logic.

No. One of the implementations of Perl 6 is written in Haskell, just like Perl 5 is written in C. That's the only relation between Perl 6 and Haskell.

haskell is written in C. Why not just learn C? The first C compiler was in PDP assembler. Why not just learn PDP assembler? Fuck it, why not just use punch cards? Why not just use 8 toggles on the front of the computer to enter octal values?
