Personnel

gollark: cargo, while typically *written* with an ASCII C/c, is in fact more accurately ϲargo.
gollark: Those don't contain C, actually.
gollark: Imagine using anything with C in the name.
gollark: I'm okay with Lua, but the ecosystem is two (2) bee, the syntax is a bit clunky, and I want ADTs.
gollark: Floats aren't unique to JS, but the apiological thing is that it has ONLY floats. Even Lua fixed that.
