Those comments really are getting old. Each HN post with rust in the title seem to have that snarky comment that get a bunch of upvotes. I get that some people are annoyed, but can we stay on topic. As technologist we should strive to written better software, rust is a good tool for low-level components, that's it.

My frustration comes from seeing posts with no obvious merit other than the language they are written in. If that's the most compelling feature of your software then I don't care too see it on the homepage. Writing compelling headlines is hard, but it's part of marketing. My comment could probably have been more thoughtful, but I'd like to encourage people to submit better headlines which highlight their software's differentiating features.
