| 2026-04-22 18:01:22 +0000 | <monochrom> | When I took a compiler course, I submitted as a test case the Ackermann function! (The prof gave bonus marks for supporting recursion.) |

| 2026-04-22 17:54:23 +0000 | <monochrom> | Yeah my thesis supervisor is like "termination is uninformative" because of that. |
| 2026-04-22 17:53:51 +0000 | <int-e> | monochrom: if it can implement the Ackermann function, is it really terminating ;) |

| 2026-04-22 17:52:06 +0000 | <monochrom> | For now, IMO banning bottoms is just a lot of high-horse unpragmatic talk. |
| 2026-04-22 17:51:32 +0000 | <monochrom> | To be sure, I would be happy if someone found a third way much more ergonomic than those two. |
| 2026-04-22 17:50:50 +0000 | <monochrom> | (Belated) If one wants to ban bottoms, the only two currently widely deployed ways are System F (eg Dhall) and dependent type theory (eg Agda, Lean). |

| 2026-04-22 16:27:48 +0000 | <c_wraith> | Think of it the other way around. YAML has a *ton* of syntactic constructs that cabal doesn't support. |

| 2026-04-22 16:27:10 +0000 | <gentauro> | however, I don't think YAML has `if-statements` |
