Collections

Church's work is held in the following permanent public collection:

gollark: Ç# = C++++.
gollark: 87 > 92
gollark: I guess with the amount of syntax and weird special cases and random standard library functions it has there must be one or two okay bits.
gollark: PHP doing something right? Seems unlikely.
gollark: IoT is great because it makes efficient use of computing resources - previously, a toaster could just sit there unhelpfully. *Now* it DDOSes people and mines bitcoins.
