Date of birth pickers are a surprisingly nuanced UI problem. What do you pick as the initial value? How do you allow users to easily move by large amounts (years) as well as small amounts (the exact day)? Defaulting to today and even allowing future dates is funny though.

I've been experimenting with different pagination UIs. It's so common to have arrows, but I've realised they're redundant here. When you have the adjacent values as well as the final value, you don't need > and >> arrows too. Thoughts?

I've been using "Expected Int, but got String" for my type error messages, but I've been wondering if I could do better. "Expected Int here, but this value has type String" or "This expression requires Int, but the value is String". Do you have a favourite?
