Vaibhav Sagar demonstrates how typed holes in Haskell can turn compiler errors into a helpful dialogue for writing code.

Moving Towards Dialogue: Collaborating with your computer using typed holes! by Vaibhav Sagar For many people, their first (and only) experience of static types is being continually told off by their compiler. With a little gentle encouragement, it is possible to mend this dysfunctional relationship and move towards having a conversation instead. In this talk I’ll demonstrate typed holes, which are a feature of some languages that allow them to offer suggestions when you ask for help!
