I feel like Rust is easy; it's just responsible, 21st century C code with more data structures in the standard library.
Functional languages are like being forced to fry an egg while on LSD. Eventually, you get the hang of it, and you start seeing Spinoza's God in the form constants, but holy shit was it difficult! It's a totally disorienting and mind-bending challenge of re-learning how to do the most basic things!
- thot_experiment 3y agoI find Rust so onerous, I gave it a fair shot, and I see it's merits but I just don't find myself in situations where Rust feels like the right fit very often. Where the cost of it feels worth the benefit. Writing C is and always has been an absolute joy for me and almost everything I'd want to do in Rust I'd rather tackle in C with a big smile on my face.
