gollark: Constraint calculus. Constraints in Haskell—which are the mechanism for reaching into the typeclass prolog system—are structurally typed. This gives a very simple form of subtyping relationship which lets you assemble complex constraints from simpler ones. The entire mtl library is based on this idea.
