That’s kind the entirety of my point: if Rust is a tool that can make expressing algorithms safer and less prone to error - and it can, in a logically provable sense - then what the fuck ground do you have to push back on?

Remember when Biden was like “I can’t fire DeJoy, that would be ILLEGAL”?

Pepperidge Farm remembers.

Lmao that doesn’t even make chronological sense

I am shocked. Shocked, I say.

I’ve gotten into the most hilariously circular debates with rust opponents on this point. Their arguments tend to come down to “just don’t write bad code”.

The team is only as strong as the weakest link. The release is only as good as the least talented dev. Tools that raise the entire foundation are objectively good. Even better are tools that outright prohibit you from even writing entire categories of bugs. Rust is that tool.

And yeah I know it’s not perfect, and it shouldn’t be treated as a panacea. But its advantages should be lauded, not derided because some contributors like to maintain the walled garden of knowledge as if it were a secret spellbook.

I mean the government would just be selling for scrap metal now if they had

It do be like that

You know what, go for it. Blue states aren’t gonna relax their building codes. This will hurt red state residents. You get what you voted for. Enjoy.

You know Trump is changing a ton of them back, right?

VA benefits are distinct from Medicare (which is distinct from Medicaid). Cutting Medicare (the one for old people) isn’t going to do much to active service members. Nor, I think, will cutting Medicaid (the one for poor people).

Glassdoor feels nigh unusable compared to what it was a decade ago.

I mean, if you have the ability to wait out the bubble, you should do so. This genAI ouroboros is going to implode sooner or later. Probably sooner because of all the cascade effects of the protectionist idiocy our government is getting into.
