gollark: Oh, I already deployed it.
gollark: We memetically bombard this with the idea that the current situation is not optimal, and THEN genericize them.
gollark: Of course.
gollark: As a Go developer, you have surely encountered at some point something using the `container` package, containing things like `container/ring` (ring buffers), `container/list` (doubly linked list), and `container/heap` (heaps, somehow). You may also have noticed that use of these APIs requires `interface{}`uous type casting. As a Go developer you almost certainly do not care about the boilerplate, but know that this makes your code mildly slower, which you ARE to care about.
gollark: High demand for generics by programmers around the world is clear, due to the development of languages like Rust, which has highly generic generics, and is supported by Mozilla, a company. As people desire generics, the market *is* to provide them.
