Hábrók
In Norse mythology, Hábrók is, according to Grímnismál, and quoted by Snorri Sturluson in Gylfaginning, as the "best of hawks" in a list containing various other names which represent the best of things. However, nothing more is known of this creature. The name is translated as "High Pants" which may refer to the bird's long legs.[1]

gollark: I was just saying that the API initialization is really a bit pointlessly complex.
gollark: Who?
gollark: ```lualocal w = require("w") -- allows interaction with krist websocket api (for realtime data) local r = require("r") -- makes http requests easier local k = require("k") -- the krist api itself local jua = require("jua") -- makes events easier os.loadAPI("json.lua") -- to parse data returned by the krist api local await = jua.await -- initialise w.lua, r.lua and k.lua r.init(jua) w.init(jua) k.init(jua, json, w, r)```Wow, they really overcomplicated this.
gollark: and again, what do you have against text chat?
