Optimal layout of a NFA-Regex is (I assume) an Hard academic Problem. Which means a library likely won't just be able to "do it for you". The CS-Fundamentals that underscore (Python, Perl, PRCE, and Java regexes) are the same

My Go v1.11 compiler still emits symbols from `musl-libc` for static builds on linux. I had to dig through on object dump just on friday.

I'm going to second this. My usage of ad-blockers is to make webpages _readiable_. When ever the privacy aspect of it comes up its like, "well that's nice." Just the bandwidth overhead of ads alone makes it worth it.
