Plot

The noble Pantaleo Santa Paola dies suddenly, without write a will. Immediately in the villa go his three grandchildren, along with three other relatives. All claim family assets, and at the end of the story reaches the poor Nicolino, who is also the nephew of Pantaleo. While the dispute rages, the Pantaleo ghost appears, and declares his true heir.

Cast

gollark: lol no generics may be a meme, but it's also true - Go has no generics apart from compiler-magic maps/channels/arrays and possibly some other thing.
gollark: But seriously, in Go you literally cannot write `Math.max` without either using `interface{}` (effectively, dropping the type system) or probably some horrible interface hax, because lol no generics.
gollark: I see.
gollark: Oh, you mean you want a language where | is max, not where you can somehow use bitwise or for max?
gollark: If you do 0b01 | 0b10, you get 0b11, which is not right.
