Do you have any example code? It's plain to see that Zig's comptime is powerful enough for typeclasses, but it's not at all obvious that it'd be as ergonomic as Haskell's typeclasses.

Then I guess the obvious question is: has it worked well for those projects?

Excellent, but why enshrine the ability to do this in law only for sufficiently wealthy media companies ? Seems a bit ridiculous, doesn't it?

If they believe that Google should compensate them then they can already demand that Google stop linking their pages, and then bargain with Google the ordinary way. Why is it fair or necessary to add extra laws here?

Good point, but bad example. Fourier developed his transform for the sole purpose of attacking the heat equation, which is definitely quite a physically important problem!

> trans people, might reasonably be described as people "whose attempts to make friends are odd and typically unsuccessful". This is a thoroughly bizarre assertion. Why can trans people be described thus?

You've accused me of hypocrisy based on your claimed experiences with other people. How charming. In any case, sure, sustainable animal farms exist. Could they meet the meat demands of the US? Popular consensus is no, and [0] lists man

Have you tested on a variety of platforms? In my experience, some are very good about this (e.g Chrome on macOS) and some are a common source of problems (e.g. Firefox on Linux, at least with PulseAudio).
