You can’t really hate something that you profess to not deeply understand.

You can’t really hate something that you profess to not deeply understand.
- austinjp 3y agoSure, but you can think you hate it, and practically speaking what's the difference?
- withinboredom 3y agoI can hate something for any reason I wish. They are my feelings that I wield. Who are you to tell me what I can and cannot feel?
- Klonoar 3y agoYou certainly can, though I submit that's a hollow emotion at best.
- josephg 3y agoOf course you can. In fact, I think it’s often much easier to hate something when you don’t understand it fully. But in this case, the GP was describing their experience programming with the borrow checker as a new rust programmer. Hatred is an emotion. It’s not up to you or me to decide if that feeling is present in someone else’s brain.
- Klonoar 3y agoI would classify that emotion as anger or frustration. Hatred is something deeper, and I don't think you can be there without deep understanding of what you're hating. But it's ultimately whatever.
