gollark: Well, yes, but I see a decent amount of things implementing their own simple linked lists when in a sane language they would just use a `seq[T]` or `Vec<T>` and be faster and saner.
gollark: I would be unsurprised if at least 10% of linked list use wasn't just because linked lists are mildly easier to implement yourself in C than vectors.
gollark: - macro for automatically generating yet another linked list implementation for some reason
gollark: Oh, I had another gollarC idea: - fearless concurrency via an optional setting to deny all inter-thread shared memory access.
