gollark: So an annoying quirk of Rust is that lots of things have to have `_mut` versions because it has no way to be generic over mutableness, right?
gollark: I just had a cool* and good** idea.
gollark: My options are to:- have a big list of links with their own unique IDs, and then maps from each page to the IDs of links to/from that page- have maps from page ID to a list of links to/from that page, with no indirection
gollark: Hmm. I am not sure how Minoteaur should store links in memory.
gollark: I know.
