Personnel

gollark: Ë
gollark: In general, if you did a survey or something, I think you would find that people are annoyed by microcrafting. Also, sleep is important and you should do it.
gollark: Unlikely.
gollark: Well, it's a preference thing, but I don't think anyone *enjoys* deeply nested crafting recipes.
gollark: CC is good for this as I just build a computer, write code and connect some peripherals.
