Unfortunately, Wikipedia doesn't seem interested in this. Their revenue is more than enough be able to invest and sustain the site forever, but they just increase expenses on non-core outgoings…
Yes, last time I checked, Zig's comptime was 20x slower than interpreted Python. Parsing a non-trivial JSON file at comptime is excrutiatingly slow and can take minutes.
You’ve got a monopoly on lemonade because you pay all the grocery stores to be the default lemonade. So we’re going to force you sell your car. I don't think this is an accurate anaology. It's more like, you own the…
