My Thoughts on OCaml vs Haskell/Rust in 2023

Another take on the current state of OCaml from Two Years of OCaml. There are many points I do and don’t agree with from both, but I think it is important to reflect on the language and tooling. These fresh takes on things are useful to read. Thanks @sid for taking the time to write your version up.

For me personally I would like a version of modular implicits to land and to have a typed effect system to go along with my EIO/Multicore. I should writeup a longer version given my background with Haskell and OCaml.
