There was a nice announcement recently from @bertschi that they were working on a common lisp style condition system: [[ANN] Package Conditions.jl](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/ann-package-conditions-jl/104863)

I’m not particularly knowledgeable about the topic, but my understanding is that lispy condition systems are essentially the same thing as the algebraic effect systems that are getting popular these days.
