On hadrian:

Documentation will eventually catch up as more people use hadrian but imo things that
need to be supported are:

- Some workflows:
  * make fast
  * ./validate
  * make EXTRA_HC_OPTS="..."
- On windows build.bat defaults to stack which I think has never worked on my box. - It's still too easy to run into hadrian bugs imo, which will probably work itself out in a few months.

There are also a few quality of life issues like ctrl+c not canceling the build on windows. Which I hope will be resolved at some point but not sure if these should be showstoppers.

One more thought I'd like to throw out in the open here:

The current Newcomers' Guide uses the current Makefile workflow, but
this is on a fast track to deprecation - but then, I doubt Hadrian has
seen enough exposure yet to use for a good beginner-friendly "Just
Works" guide. I'm leaning towards sticking with make for now, also
because existing material is already written this way; and then once
Hadrian is truly ready for prime time, we can rewrite the relevant
parts.

Thoughts?
