Zeljko Nesic (Oct 19 2022 at 00:22): Zeljko Nesic (Oct 19 2022 at 00:22):Silly question, but I think I got in some weird state.
roc check file.roc have passed 0 errs, 0 warns, but roc run file.roc exploded on my face like a piñata.
Subsequent undos of the code make even roc check file.roc paniced.
So maybe it's worth debugging it, my question is, what would be rocs rm -rf ./node_modules equivalent?
For those interested below is log:

It looks like you have triggered a compiler bug. This can happen when there are things in your .roc file that are not yet supported in the roc binary. Pretty sure there is nothing you need to clean up, just delete the generated executable file (or not as it will be overwritten anyway), and build again. Fro reference I prefer using roc dev which includes a typecheck like roc check. If you can narrow down your code to isolate the compiler bug, then you can create an issue for it.
Zeljko Nesic (Oct 19 2022 at 12:10):Oh turned out to be even more trivial.
Compiler breaks when you write this
mainTask : Task ExitCode [] [Read [Stdin], Write [Stdout]]
mainTask =
Task.forever (
nm = { cyber : 42 , funk : "Yo" }
msg = Vamos
expect nm == nm # <<< THIS
_ <- Task.await (Stdout.line "🗣 \(nm.funk) ! 👂👂👂")
Task.loop nm (\model -> Task.map (tick msg model) Step)
)
|> Program.exit 0
expect in Tasks == bazooka + piñata
