Notable designs
gollark: ```go// detect if err isn't nil valueif err != nil { // if it isn't a nil value, make the function's return values be nil and the error in question return nil, err }```
gollark: Also, I'm semi-pointlessly asking again: anyone want an Ender Mailbox? I have them sort of half-working (needs fixes and lots of refactoring...). The idea is that you can send mail through ender chests to other people, somewhat securely and possibly automatically.
gollark: All shall be furnaces.
gollark: Alternatively, I'll just make it dump into every ender chest channel so it won't shut down until it makes about 440000.
gollark: Well, anyway, I assume you've shut it down, I'll implement safeguards against this eventually.
