#7405 Up↑ /5 Down↓ [Report] 2015-03-03 02:14 GMT
<eddyb> https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/907 aka "future-proof language design is hard"
<eddyb> but at a glance, that RFC fixes the hole in the roof by plugging it with kittens -

<Ms2ger> "(expected type error but found u8)"
<kimundi> Ms2ger: Rust is very strict, even the errors get typechecked :|
<Jesse> what input triggers that?
<kimundi> Probably follow error. A prior error was emitted saying that no type could be determined, and the compiler kept going spewing this one out
<eddyb> I did think we should refrain from printing type errors containing ty_err
<sfackler> I don't think there's a context in which it's ever useful
<bstrie> "expected type error but found u8" is basically the compiler saying, "look at you, you can't even screw up properly" -

<mib_lyavkj> So, who thought it was a good idea to name this language after iron oxide?
<aatch> mib_lyavkj, no idea, who though it was a good idea to name a language after a letter in the alphabet?
<mib_lyavkj> Exactly!
<aatch> Or a family of snakes, or crystalline aluminium oxide
<mib_lyavkj> I'd much rather use rust or Go, but at least python sounds cool! Hardly anyone creates cool names for these things.
<aatch> Well there are three languages named after one guy.
<brendanc> You're talking about Dylan Oberon Pascal?
