gollark: Mrmola's goals are beyond the understanding of us mortal beings/
gollark: What does mola have that data for?
gollark: OH NO IT STARTED AGAIN ÅAAAAA
gollark: > Someone in charge of the Discord bots here should write or extend a bot to replace a regex match to replace 0/0 or x/0 by UNDEFINED automatically. Something like re.replace([0-9]*/ 0, UNDEFINED , string) (simplified because I am lazy) , so MrMola can no longer type 0 / 0 and it's automatically shown as UNDEFINED :- )<@520480232738652161> Bots and moderators cannot, for extremely obvious reasons, edit other people's messages.
gollark: As opposed to partial ordering, where some pairs of elements can't be ordered.
