gollark: You MAY have to actually store information.
gollark: Doesn't Haskell not like infinite types?
gollark: This is a bad explanation because this takes away any ability to make meaningful statements about god. For example, let's say you say "god is good". Well, if they can just entirely ignore laws of logic, they can be good, bad and potatOS at the same time.
gollark: It's not a very good spec.
gollark: Oh, that's Rust, not macron.
