gollark: There're concurrent hashmaps and stuff presumably implemented with `unsafe`.
gollark: (thread-safe reference-counting pointer to a mutex to a T)
gollark: i.e. if I tried to just pass a mutable reference to a map to all of the stuff I run in different threads, it'd be a compiler error, so instead it's a `Arc<Mutex<T>>`.
gollark: Well, you can spawn threads, and the type system prevents weirdness with concurrency.
gollark: Oh, and Rust has that nice thing where you can't keep around both a mutable reference and immutable references to stuff.
