gollark: I'm sure I can figure out some way to make python do that

gollark: OH REALLY?

gollark: I prefer Rust.

gollark: ```perl -wlne'END{print$n}eof&&$n++;/<title>([^<]+)/i&&$n--' *Contents 1 Interpretation 2 Implementations 2.1 In Perl 2.2 In shell scriptsInterpretationThe code in question (from the collection "The road to Perligata") is a lament over the coming apocalypse, an expression of the author's Weltschmerz and the futility of all human endeavors.

gollark: They'll probably say "lambdas are evil" because python hates functional programming a lot of the time.
