A Year in Deno Land
- sakex 5y agoI would have liked if you had cut a bit on the diversity/privilege BS. I come from Europe where race doesn't matter and hearing about American woke rhetoric is extremely annoying.
- wobblyasp 5y agoFree internet, he can post what he wants.
- sakex 5y agoOf course, and it was a great read in the end. I just said I would have liked it more with a bit less American twitter rhetoric

- ravenstine 5y agoNo one should criticize anything on the free internet.
- donkeyponcho 5y agoSeconded, from an American. It reads like a weird quasi-Maoist confession. In what way does this do any good toward advancing any kind of noble cause? It's humiliating.
- YorickPeterse 5y ago> I come from Europe where race doesn't matter and hearing about American woke rhetoric is extremely annoying. Not sure what rock you have been living under, but the EU absolutely has its share of racial issues. Saying race doesn't matter is nothing but naive.
- ng12 5y agoI mean it really depends, doesn't it? Many countries in Europe are 90%+ a single ethnicity, and the effect is even more exaggerated if you live outside a major city.
- terracottage 5y agoYes but they're mostly related to Muslims which means they can never be talked about openly in any sane or productive way. Because that's "racist" too.
- ravenstine 5y agoI was hoping for some insights on Deno but this was really hard to get through. Most of it is personal stuff, really, and probably more on Rust than Deno. If the title was different I'd feel differently, but this was unintentional bait and switch. As someone who uses Deno for side projects, I hope the day will come where I can work with it professionally. Having so much parity with browser APIs and Typescript has been incredible.
- hui-zheng 5y agoi could see author's guilt to have such a privilege. I am so happy that I am a first-generation Chinese living in North America. The "Culture Revolution" of America is not getting to me yet. but i know one day it will get to me, as what happened in China "Culture Revolution". No one could escape it. his writing reminds me what those self-confession letters people "in privilege" made in China from 50s to 70s. We are just at the beginning of something. Americans are abandoning their belief and values. We are embracing something half-truth and deceiving. So, they will own you before you know it. Please learn the history, my fellow Americans, you are the last defence before that ideology owns the whole world. https://www.thepullrequest.com/p/the-american-diversity-meat-grinder https://www.thepullrequest.com/p/the-american-diversity-meat...
- terracottage 5y agoThis self flagellation of privilege is tiresome and entirely beside the point. If this person thinks the world would be better if their job was done by a woman or a brown person, they should quit and go look for their replacement. We all know they won't. I wanted to know what it was like to work with Deno. Is this person trying to say the entire community is full of cordycepted progressives?
