Notes

In order to circumvent Korean laws that prevent commercial breaks in the middle of an episode, what would previously have been aired as single 70 minute episodes are now being repackaged as two 35 minute episodes, with two episodes being shown each night with a commercial break between the two.[2]

gollark: Given that it's Perl, it's probably completely insane.

gollark: Not that that's actually a problem most of the time, honestly.

gollark: Also, it has more consistent performance.

gollark: Rust goes for consistency, strong typing, and being *actually right* and not just randomly discarding data or stealthily monotonicing clocks or splitting paths subtly wrong.

gollark: Go's attitude seems to be "make stuff mostly work in bizarre opaque/magic ways".
