gollark: Macron idea: types are a set of every possible value of the type. This is of course how types work usually, but in Macron you have to manually write out the entire set.
gollark: Idea: all Macron structs contain an implicit monoid.
gollark: Maybe I should write it in Python for now and port it "later".
gollark: The issue is that while the Rust and to some extent Nim versions are principled™, fast, and easy to deploy as they compile to mostly-static binaries, I cannot rapidly write and prototype accursuous code very fast.
gollark: But worse than supreme RUST™ types.
