- P. s. subsp. pubiflora
gollark: I put together this simple search engine thing (https://search.osmarks.tk) as a fun project to try and practice building somewhat complex applications. It seemed to work fine on the test dataset of my website. But then I got bored and decided to have it crawl esolangs.org, and it's about a 14th of the way through after running for maybe an hour (at 1 page crawled/second), queries are running quite slowly, and the lack of pagination is causing problems. I guess this is a lesson in scaling?
gollark: Shadowbans by themselves are quite evil.
gollark: I don't see why I would want to.

gollark: You can get transparent OLEDs, but surely just sticking it straight in front of your face would make it hard to focus on?
