gollark: This is highly idiomatic python.
gollark: ```python>>> memmove(id(7), id(8), sys.getsizeof(7))140001623574848>>> 78```YES!
gollark: Sadly, no, I assume I must move all 28 bytes.
gollark: ```pythoncast(id(7), POINTER(c_int64)).contents = cast(id(8), POINTER(c_int64)).contents```It's weirdly fine with this.
gollark: How big are they again?
