There's a spirograph guy in the corner, the only one left that knows perl, lurking out and trying to entice people with its merits.
Long ago I worked primarily in perl and ... yeesh, I recognize maybe 30% of it when looking, and that's the directly-c-adjacent stuff.
To be fair if I walked away from Rust for a year I'd probably be similarly lost.
