gollark: Well, the NUMERATE POLYMERS team may launch a countercoup if you do, so don't get any ideas.
gollark: Idea: apiostandardization.
gollark: Including logging, random metadata, the uninstall thing, keyboard shortcuts, superglobals, the code safety checker, chuck norris jokes, compression, the automatic space clearer, some lorem ipsum variants, a UUID generator, the automatic data mining system, settings, screen control, the native raw peripheral API, PotatoNET™, potato_tool, `print_hi`, privileged execution, the random bytestring generator, the registry, PIR, and rot13.
gollark: PotatOS actually has its own PotatOS API which has zero backward compatibility guarantees whatsoever.
gollark: All the time.
