If we were to create a Rust version of this page for Haskell, what cool programming techniques would you add to it?

Enum constructors are functions, this typechecks:

fn foo<T>() {
    let f: fn(T) -> Option<T> = Some;
}

I was a bit apprehensive because rust has like a gazillion different function types but here it seems to work like just any other language with a HM type system.

Woah. That's quite interesting. I didn't know that.
