Well, it's nice on this side of the line.
There is no party line, and there is no tone. There are over 30 years of experience with C, not all of it pleasant, though most of it productive, and, comparatively speaking, amazing recent experiences with Rust. I do have to shift my thinking from how I would solve problems in C, because the memory management paradigm is so different, but, thanks in part to deep dives into scoping in other languages in pursuit of pernicious bugs, once I make that shift, problems are easier to solve in Rust: The language and the compiler, hand in glove, do a lot of the work for you.
You can carp all you like, and that is all it is, carping, not criticism, we'll just happily work along getting a lot done in less time.
- jerf 2y agoIf you want to advocate for things, you should learn more about social cues. Blatently missing them this badly hurts your advocacy and pushes people away. This is not unique to the Rust community, and it isn't universal to the Rust community by any means, I know you're a minority, but you people who just beat on people like this are hurting far more than you are helping.
