    I feel like I've made more progress on the new Idris in the last fortnight than in the previous six months. This research leave lark is great. If only I could do that all the time... Just about to get cracking on a new elaborator which for me is the most entertaining part.

    On the other hand I have to write a new parser now, which is less fun. Swings and roundabouts...

    @jonmsterling On the surface, I'm not sure how exciting it is. I'm probably taking more stuff away. But underneath, I feel like I'm finally getting some idea of how these languages ought to work that I wish I'd got, say, 15 years ago.
