Guys, I realized I was doing #Haskell development stone-age style.

You _need_ to try this, these new tools are absolute game-changers, unlocking 2x to 10x productivity.

I know this is not a popular opinion, but look, we need to keep pace with the changes of times. It might feel hard at first, or at least feel alien, but, we need to part from our old, sluggish, slow ways.

So, enable the DuplicateRecordFields and OverloadedRecordDot extensions, now!
