I have not done either. "Curmudgeon" is a "get off my lawn, kids!" grandpa btw. :)
I have not denied you anything, I implored you to ignore the zealots that exist IN EVERY ECOSYSTEM and judge the thing based on what it can actually do.
Please don't misrepresent what I said, that's not arguing in good faith.
- nottorp 2y agoHeh, this grandpa has written like 3x more python than C this year. And the C part was no choice - that was all I had on these devices. Edit: from what I hear from my peers (translation: other programmers that I have coffee or drinks with), if I started a new server application today and I needed the performance of a compiled language, I should use Go not Rust. I believe servers are where the propensity of C like languages to allow you to shoot yourself in the foot is the problem, isn't it?
