gollark: `openring`, that is, which generates the "from other blogs" bit on my website.
gollark: Also, in the past I had to write about three lines of code to make a Go project faster, because despite Go's main thing being parallelism the authors did not bother to parallelize it despite it being trivially possible to do so.
gollark: Well, in my foolish youth I actually did use it a decent bit. I also used Apple products and was excited about Windows 10, so something.
gollark: LIES!
