Charles Hoskinson Shows Elon Musk and Jack Dorsey Cardano’s Haskell Programming Language

Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson recently engaged into a Twitter debate on programming languages with Tesla CEO Elon Musk and Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey. Elon Musk had been gently asked by a Tesla enthusiast to include software notes in the Tesla app. Elon Musk highlighted his hatred for contemporary C++ in his response to the Twitter user, but his fondness for plain C, which former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey concurred with.

“Just wait until you people discover Haskell” said Charles Hoskinson, who contributed to the thread. Cardano’s smart contract programming language and Marlowe, the domain-specific language for financial smart contracts, are both built on Haskell. Cardano’s off-chain and on-chain codes are both written in Haskell. On the other hand, Haskell isn’t one of the most popular programming languages.

Charles Hoskinson explains why Haskell was chosen

Cardano, on the other hand, selected Haskell because it believes its Plutus and Marlowe smart contracts can be properly built in a precise, formally proven language that delivers a high level of assurance right away. This follows the devastating effects of the resulting vulnerabilities, code failures, and smart contract exploits on blockchains and smart contract languages, which have resulted in substantial financial losses, generally in the billions of dollars.

In response to Solana’s recent outage, Hoskinson defended Cardano’s methodical approach, asking:

“So the primary criticism is that Cardano writes software carefully when billions of dollars are at stake from millions of users and thousands of businesses rely on the infrastructure for their livelihood?”

Cardano’s methodical approach has been chastised by numerous market experts and investors who need immediate results.

The Vasil Hard Fork combinatory event, scheduled for the end of June, is expected to enhance Cardano and its Plutus smart contract platform.
