This is also what I love about js_of_ocaml. It preserves the language semantics.

Yeah, I'd say that Spring is the Java equivalent of the same problem (over-engineering), just using reflection and runtime bytecode generation instead. I agree that using Monads, Monoids, etc. isn't necessarily indicative of over

Seems like a good opportunity for a custom derive.

> Blaming the tool for own failure to do the job isn't all that persuasive. I would argue it is persuasive if switching to a new tool lead to success. What would be the point of continuing to try the thing that's not working?

There are still sustainable farms, and you can of course encourage more of it by buying your meat from those.

Are we convinced growing these crops are good for the environment? Not to mention how terrible plant-based “meats” are for your health.

Is it possible to configure your browser to treat every site as if it used 'font-display: optional'? I'd love to be able to do that. Seems like it should be up to the user to decide, not the web developer.

It may not be easy, but I think it's the area that needs the most focus, at least at my company.
