At the expense of absolutely massive, gargantuan, entire-OS-sized binaries.

Just looking at my bin/ folder eg

    k9salpha - a relatively simple curses app - 56MB
    argocd - a cli for magaging argocd - 155MB


It's like what, $0.01 per GB these days? I bought a 2 TB NVMe for Linux 4 years ago, on which I also game, and it's 50% full.

Disk space hasn't been a serious concern in two decades.


Until you start paying for it on cloud deployments per GB transfer.


        strip --strip-all k9salpha argocd
