Haskell type classes by default pick the implementation based on a single type variable in its signature, but it can occur in multiple positions (including the return type). A comm…

The thing is, you're focusing on when you've detected that there is an issue (a crash). A lot of the issues with NULL are the fact that you can't easily detect if beforehand. It's …

It's interesting how different people's preludes are. We have a custom prelude at work, and things that it has that this one doesn't: * Time types and functions. * Overloaded (.) a…
