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.
