TWiR quote of the week

I might suspect that if you are lumping all statically-typed languages into a single bucket without making particular distinction among them, then you might not have fully internalized the implications of union (aka Rust enum aka sum) typed data structures combined with exhaustive pattern matching.

I like to call it getting "union-pilled" and it's really hard to accept otherwise statically-typed languages once you become familiar.
