gollark: Possibly an OS thing.
gollark: Go has its own *assembly language* because of course.
gollark: When someone asked for monotonic time to be exposed properly, GUESS WHAT, they decided to "fix" the whole thing in the most Go way possible by "transparently" adding monotonic time to the existing time handling, in some bizarre convoluted way which was a breaking change for lots of code and which limited the range time structs could represent rather a lot.
gollark: Rust, which is COOL™, has monotonic time and system time and such as separate types. Go did *not* have monotonic time for ages, but *did* have an internal function for it which wasn't exposed because of course.
gollark: That article describes, among other things, somewhat poor filesystem interaction handling, and a really stupid way monotonic time was handled.
