I used to approach problems by designing a monad for my whole program, using an appropriate stack of transformers.  I suspect such an approach led to the claim that "monads are not appropriate for large software systems" in a popular paper a few months ago.

Link please!  I googled but I couldn't find it :(  I'd like to find out what you and the authors have learned about the inappropriateness of monads for large software systems.


Thanks,
Jason
