gollark: <@215941165785022464> Race conditions: the new bot is apparently now split into lots of bits, and if they aren't synchronized properly it might be possible to extract coins from the differences between them.
gollark: I wonder if there are any weird race conditions in it too.
gollark: It might not be *infinitely* actually, but definitely an odd quirk.
gollark: Okay, I just found another way to get (very small) amounts of money which a bot could trivially do in a loop or something. If this is deemed an issue there'll inevitably be a hacky "fix" for it, but the system is fundamentally broken.
gollark: Also, bots wouldn't actually be an issue with a better designed system which requires thinking. Which, to be fair, this sort of does, except for the fact that the *only* way to get money is probably to check the prices constantly, which bots do well.
