“Business Idiot” seems like a bit of a superfluous phrase, outside of criticizing that particularly dangerous group of people hell-bent on destroying humanity as a concept. But the article is woefully lacking in that regard.

Man, this feels like a frustratingly good way to get back into Haskell, and on the cutting edge of GHC to boot… Or should I take the plunge and do it in rust? (If only I was unemployed and could do this in agda/idris/lean…)

It’s not that hard, YAML is disappointingly and unfortunately, unnecessarily, extremely ambiguous, which is exactly what you do not want in the contexts where it’s dominant. The solution is uncannily simple tho, fuck YAML, just generate it
