Achievements

Notable players
gollark: I refuse to lose my complex-number part.
gollark: Lua does it nicely, although I think it's just `longjmp` internally.
gollark: I don't care *that* much about mildly worse performance in case of errors, and you can put `try`/`catch`s close to errors as appropriate.
gollark: I disagree, actually, it's much more verbose and loses information.
gollark: Yes, but it won't because there are consistent and good standards for it which cover the common usecases.
