gollark: Thus, I am condemned to eternal suffering and minoteaur will never be finished.
gollark: I'm actually investigating F# as a non-bad language, and while it is in fact an excellent language according to the osmarks.tk™ arbitrary language ratings™, the tooling is æææææÆÆÆÆÆÆÆÆÆÆÆÆÆÆÆÆæææææÆÆÆÆÆÆÆÆææÆÆÆÆæææææÆÆÆÆÆæææ (very heavyweight and annoying) and much of the ecosystem is too "enterprisey".

gollark: I assume it's because you have sync code hogging the thread or something.
gollark: Using `create_task`?
