Rust's error messages are so handy, and actually useful! Definitely helpful to read them haha. Haskell's errors are pretty terrifying in comparison – I can see why folks learn to ignore them. 😬

Like, to be clear, there are sometimes where it can be hard to understand what is wrong, and sometimes the hints are misdirected, but the hierarchy of information is presented well, and they are more often than not worth reading, and so you learn to make use of them.

And when you do encounter hard to understand errors or misdirecting hints, please file a ticket, we consider those bugs.

Yeah! I usually check, and it's pretty rare that there isn't already a bug open. That's why the errors get as good as they do! 😊
