Many clients may have visited only one time, but when you reach higher numbers they may be used together with other data to help identify users. Maybe only one user will have over 100 visits, and then you can uniquely identify them.

Thanks for making Ardour! When will it be upgraded from GTK2 (which reached its end of life two years ago) to GTK3 or GTK4, and are there any plans of supporting SDL2 instead, to ensure stability and portability over time?

So, 2 owners got extra range for a couple of years. This was to their benefit. It should be considered a gift from Tesla, since Tesla made the mistake. If Tesla withdraws the gift then they should also pay for the mistake, somehow.

Gambas and Lazarus covers a lot of ground, but I also miss a system where you can easily go from an UI designer directly to a small self-contained executable, and then start to add in code. Visual Go, Visual Rust, Visual Nim and Visual Crys

I also find it hard to spot why OCaml is the natural "step up" for creating real world applications instead of Haskell, Rust, Clojure or even Kotlin, C++, Python and Go.

It all depends on what you're trying to do. These cases work flawlessly in Go, in my experience: * Batch 10 tasks and run them concurrently (using WaitGroups). * Locking resources while reading and writing with a mutex like sync.RWMute

Sure. But it's not mandatory. And if it's about optimization, pausing the GC for critical regions can be useful, or just pre-allocating memory.
