| 2025-01-12 15:19:22 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <Profpatsch> though GADTs are a superset of existential types right?? |
| 2025-01-12 15:18:55 +0100 | <hellwolf> | impredicative types I don't actively use, but passively use from a library that requiring it |
| 2025-01-12 15:18:51 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <Profpatsch> (same as with GADTs, though people tell me they have their uses) |
| 2025-01-12 15:18:40 +0100 | <hellwolf> | oh, I meant existential types |
| 2025-01-12 15:18:28 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <Profpatsch> esp. because error messages and inference becomes a joke with impredicative types |
| 2025-01-12 15:18:27 +0100 | <hellwolf> | okay, but I am not sure if were complicated in the first place |
| 2025-01-12 15:18:03 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <Profpatsch> any time I thought I needed these, I could usually slightly redesign and vastly simplify |
| 2025-01-12 15:17:34 +0100 | <hellwolf> | yes, I use it in places |
| 2025-01-12 15:17:21 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <Profpatsch> (that is not just a toy example I mean) |

| 2025-01-12 15:17:11 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <Profpatsch> do you have an example? |
| 2025-01-12 15:16:55 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <Profpatsch> I don’t really run into situations where I need that flexibility tbh |

| 2025-01-12 15:15:51 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <Profpatsch> At least I don’t |
| 2025-01-12 15:15:48 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <Profpatsch> no you don’t really need them usually |
| 2025-01-12 15:15:11 +0100 | <hellwolf> | I sometimes create an array of AnyX existential data types. |
| 2025-01-12 15:14:49 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <Profpatsch> in what case? |
| 2025-01-12 15:14:05 +0100 | <hellwolf> | would you also need ImpredicativeTypes in that case? |
| 2025-01-12 15:08:48 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <Profpatsch> usually RankN solves most things |
| 2025-01-12 15:08:40 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <Profpatsch> bailsman: agree, I haven’t felt like I needed an existential type in a long time |

| 2025-01-12 14:56:20 +0100 | <bailsman> | ...yes I've found many cases in which I thought I needed an existential type. I'm glad this is a rite of passage. Although, I still often think I need it, so I'm not sure if I've fully completed the rite yet |
