gollark: (I assume it's because there's no first block, but what am I meant to do?)
gollark: How do you start up a krist node <@173511059582222336>? I got most of the errors to go away, but I can't even mine because of```TypeError: Cannot read property 'id' of null at Function.Blocks.blockToJSON (/opt/Krist/src/blocks.js:200:17) at Function.BlocksController.blockToJSON (/opt/Krist/src/controllers/blocks.js:83:16) at /opt/Krist/src/routes/blocks.js:354:29 at <anonymous> at process._tickCallback (internal/process/next_tick.js:188:7)```
gollark: Someone bought lots of names.
gollark: If anyone knows how, they should probably PR it so that new nodes will actually work.
gollark: Anyway, they won't fix it, and *I* don't know how so can't/won't.
