Hmm, you have a point.  Maybe the three wise guys are a more appropriate animal metaphor...

Yeah, but that's an owl, with a 360-degree neck. Shouldn't it have been facing away from the camera? :-)

I am sufficiently interested that I'm seriously considering writing a book on this topic actually. That was a very nice write-up. Do I correctly understand, then, that the root cause was the broken golang library function / routine?

(For the moment, we will pass on the topic of the irony of having to come up with an alternate name for your own language because otherwise people won't be able to find things about it... in the search engine you run that you wrote it for :-) Way to go Google.)

Discord seems to be having issues. It is showing on Down Detector. The splash page says:

The Server Status page shows:

Mostly FYI.
