This somehow reminded me, wasn't there a competition years back to see who could generate the most compiler error output with the least amount of C++? A few too many templates and you could generate terabytes. Edit: don't think it was this but this is still a fun read https://codegolf.stackexchange.com/questions/1956/generate-t...

I had ten of thousand lines C++ compilation errors that would crash emacs while trying to parse/colorize them.

Still prefer them to the average python error message.
