gollark: I had just mixed up `map` and `and_then` somewhere, but it was... far too hard to figure that out.
gollark: I also used `warp` in Rust once... the type errors were *horrible*. They were several lines filled with dense crazy generics.
gollark: Kind of? I mean, I find those easier to debug, possibly just due to greater exposure.
