None of those statements has anything in common, beyond their hyperbolic status. That's literally the point.

The War of 1812 could easily be considered such. It's a moot point anyways, no one was discussing war. You decided to bring that up as some sort of virtue signal. It has nothing to do with cultural similarities.

It's built into the socket library, so most high performance web apps already manually enable TCP_NODELAY. This just allows you to force it OS-wide. Linux used to have something similar, called TCP low-latency mode, but the flag is no

Yeah, PeaZip is the best example of what Lazarus is capable of, if you feel like using it. I remember back in my Pascal-loving days, especially after the .NET release of VB, looking at PeaZip+Lazarus and being inspired.
