+This error occurs when the compiler was unable to infer the concrete type of a
+variable. This error can occur for several cases, the most common of which is a
+mismatch in the expected type that the compiler inferred for a variable's
+initializing expression, and the actual type explicitly assigned to the
+variable.
+
+For example:
+
+let x: i32 = "I am not a number!";
+//     ~~~   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+//      |             |
+//      |    initializing expression;
+//      |    compiler infers type `&str`
+//      |
+//    type `i32` assigned to variable `x`

+Types in type definitions have lifetimes associated with them that represent
+how long the data stored within them is guaranteed to be live. This lifetime
+must be as long as the data needs to be alive, and missing the constraint that
+denotes this will cause this error.

+// This won't compile because T is not constrained, meaning the data
+// stored in it is not guaranteed to last as long as the reference
+struct Foo<'a, T> {
