It'd be useful to know what the end goal is for ThePhd, like what would be a satisfactory outcome for them? What happened to them was hurtful, I understand and sympathise with that. However when one steps back and reads their responses, coupled to an extent with their writing (of course someone else would reach a diff conclusion), they appear to be an aggressive and maybe even vindictive character. You can't really quit the way you did, and then still dangle things like [0]. People who utter such things out can portray an "I'll get you" attitude. Then when someone responds and you're unhappy with their response, you agress and call them a mtherfcker [1]. Some might consider it to be too late, however some form of mediation might still be necessary.

Oh please fuck right off. How is saying "I had a bad experience with this community so I'm going to use a different programming language now" dangling anything?

  "I had been making this thing that I was going to share with the world in X, now I'll have to choose Y or Z". The dangle is this sharing of X with the world. If whatever they were writing was private, nobody would have cared, and they'd have known that enough not to bother dangling it.

    First, there's absolutely nothing wrong with publicly discussing the Rust project/community's impacts on your choice of language. Second, he had already publicly talked about doing a project in Rust. Should he have ... somehow avoided making it public that he was changing what language that soon-to-be-public project uses? How would that work?

You're saying he's not allowed to give Rust another shot and then leave Rust again once yet more bullshit is thrown his way from prominent members of the Rust community? Why not? Is your problem with it that he decided to use Rust for that project or that he decided to move away from Rust for that project?

  He (Jean Heyd) doesn't intend to give Rust another shot. He's done with Rust. Apparently.

    My parent comment seems to be complaining that ThePHD did give Rust another shot (by picking it as the language for his next project) but then reconsidered in light of this. I'm wondering what my parent comment thinks is so wrong about that (the "you can't really quit the way you did, and then dangle things like [0]" comment).

      His comments so far have been never touching Rust. So, that's strange. Anyway, he should pick language on technical qualities. That way he can avoid drama.

        What do you mean? nevi-me's comment linked to this: https://cohost.org/ThePhD/post/2720152-mn#comment-fdd4ee8d-9c12-47b0-8032-4ddbf41ee637 https://cohost.org/ThePhD/post/2720152-mn#comment-fdd4ee8d-9.... That's, like, the core thing in my disagreement with nevi-me. It would've helped if you read nevi-me's comment before you decided to join the discussion. I don't understand why you believe you're in a position to say what anyone "should" use as criteria for picking a language. If a language's leadership and most prominent community members were mistreating me and lying about me for half a year I might want to avoid that language too.
