    Exceptions don’t exists and ask errors must be handled at every level. It’s infuriating.

      I actually kind of like the error handling. Code should explain why something was a problem, not just where it was a problem. You get a huge string of “couldn’t foobar the baz: target baz was not greebleable: no greeble provider named fizzbuzz”, and while the strings are long as hell they are much better explanations for a problem than a stack trace is.

        I think you missed a memo. Exceptions are bad and errors as values are in… I’ll have Harold forward it to you
