   It's 2024.

   You go to compile a CLI chat utility.

   It sucks down 600 dependencies, eats gigabytes of RAM while compiling, and pegs your CPUs.

   Done compiling; you run it, it's perfect, does everything you need.

   Memory footprint: 86 MiB.

   This is fine?!?!?!?!????

   *scratches head*

     Aye. Various deep-dives on why it was the way it was in the thread if you're curious. :)
