Synonyms[3][4]

gollark: I'm using `warp`, which has nice HTTP combinatory things which are also glacially slow to compile, `sqlx`, which type-checks SQL queries at compile time but is also probably quite slow, and `horrorshow`, a compile-time HTML templating library.
gollark: Well, I use a lot of compile-time stuff like macros, and rustc is not very fast.
gollark: It's a small project currently.
