gollark: Hmm, graphs, those are always fun.
gollark: > <@!258639553357676545>> If you really want a good example, how about the JS you run when you access this site? How about the JS that is run when accessing other sites? A lot of them could use static or server side dynamically generated pages as opposed to JS.<@474726021652807680> A lot of time that's for development convenience as opposed to anything else.
