Habitat and ecology
F. gentilis occurs in ponds and rivers, where it is found on substrates dominated by organic material and sludge. It commonly associates with the roots of the Water Hyacinth species Eichhornia azurea and E. crassipes.[2]
gollark: It's just generally so hostile to abstraction.
gollark: I mean, it has such an awful type system, and poor concurrency, and tooling.
gollark: But I agree quite a lot, Go is just so *bad* and yet so popular?
gollark: IKR, right?
gollark: > As a fellow procrastinator I'm a huge fan of Rob Pike. He half assed a language, basically plagiarised Algol, and somehow got a tech giant and self proclaimed 10X'ers to fall for it hook, line and sinker. There is so much mismatch between the language and its audience that it's just impressive how bad the language is . Some random reddit person talking about go.
