gollark: We could probably just hardcode it that way, or put in `1 << 2` or something.
gollark: This is also valid I guess.
gollark: I'd prefer it if we had a helper function so it could be `WHERE permissions & permission('deploy bees')` or something.
gollark: It isn't particularly low-level that "numbers are composed of bits".
gollark: However, SQLite integers *are* a mere 64 bits (signed).
