gollark: Well, my code is generally kind of unpleasant, but this particular bit is fine.
gollark: This is "Rust" "code". It has a perfectly reasonable amount of symbols.
gollark: It also doesn't have generics, so I can't make a smart pointer which works for any type without `void*`, which is type-unsafe.
gollark: If I make my own smart pointers, then I'm pretty sure I have to manually sprinkle my code with macrons/function calls to do things to them, because the macros are bad token substitution things and not powerful enough to add them appropriately.
gollark: But very similar.
