CMake 3.29 is gaining direct support for selecting a linker, but gcc < 12.1 doesn't support -fuse-ld=mold. Some Linux distributions have back-ported a patch for earlier gcc versions to support it, but CMake might not support those.

The assert made this bug easy to track down. Without it, who knows when this problem would have been discovered, and how hard it would have been to track down the source of the problem with failing code.

Long live assert!

I've been taking a break from work for the last few weeks, so missed much of the brouhaha over the McKinsey developer productivity article. But I'm sure that I could not write a better response than this one from @tastapod
