Today I made an interesting discovery.

We all know the benefits of a strong type system, and often tout it as a major advantage of using Haskell. The discovery I made, was that C programmer don't realise the implications of that, as this comment highlights:

Apparently, no one realises that a SEGFAULT is a type error, just not a very helpful one.
