A modern programming language that makes developers happier.

Is it possible to specify the type of a function reference in the very same expression I'm referencing in? for example, instead of
```val function: ((Char) -&gt; Unit) = ::println
println(function)```
something like
```println(::println) // but this fails because it's ambiguous```

`println(::println as (Char) -&gt; Unit)` if I remember correctly.

I tried that (including the missing parentheses) but it didn't work. It seems the compiler tries to get the reference and then cast it
