Cool, thanks for that.
unwrap() and the try operator. They are convenient when writing new code and I don't yet want to have to think about all possible error cases. But I want to handle those properly at some point, so I can use the linter to check for those usages and replace them with robust error handling.

}A bosh like that can easily be written in any lang regardless of whether $lang is "good"/"bad", "popular"/"unpopular", "modern"/"ancient" and so on. Where did you find those mussy exercises?
Nope, it is much more useful to learn FORTH.

pandoc is really cool tool, but have you ever tried to implement a c-compiler/os-kernel in Haskell?..
Now that's a name I've not heard in a long time. A long time. Instead of adding Rust (or Zig) to base, let's rewrite the kernel and utilities in Forth. Oh wait, BTDT, got the T-shirt. I vaguely remember having an EPROM (or was it a tape?) that allowed booting Forth on a 6809-based microcomputer. It was sort of fun.
Was. It was replaced with Lua.
This is usually ends up being a mistake. Use well defined interfaces and separate assembly code in assembly files so that you can more easily target multiple architectures. inline assembly will make a port very painful.
.Wow. Wow. WHO IS STILL USING THAT‽ Although, I guess since the US gov. used (or is still using) 8in floppy disks, I wouldn't be surprised if someone was still using it.
