we only call ourselves the "most intelligent" species because we wrote the test dogs smell better. birds see better. bacteria evolve faster. beavers reshape ecosystems with way less resource use than we do. @skriptble on Fallthrough Ep 64

Getting rid of old habits is tough. I have a type that marshals to text so I made some decode functions. Called one DecodeTick and the other DecodeTickString. I implemented the underlying function as generic, then realized I could just have a single generic DecodeTick function.

So yeah, generics are handy in situations like these to avoid having awkward function names. Fantastic!
