OK, this is my summary for today

@DerFetzer Thank you, thiserror is actually part of the material I'm working on, but comparing alternatives has been on my TODO list!

@buherator anyhow is not really an alternative to thiserror but rather a companion for painless handling of errors in application code.

@DerFetzer @buherator The biggest tip: make individual errors for every single fallible operation. Don’t try to make one giant error type for all things in your code.

@teotwaki @DerFetzer thanks, I'm quite picky about such things anyway :) I'm more puzzled about the knobs&dials one has to be familiar with to do things properly.
