Haha the translation is so funny. But I confess, as a native french speaker, I could not code in that language. It is so weird because I am used to english for coding now. Sometimes I write my variable names in french and I think I even used accented letters one time. What is worse, is that I tend to mix english and fench variable names in my code, but anyway english is way more common in the code base.

  Using French variable names is a great way for me to know this is something I defined, not something which is defined by the environment.

I find it slightly disappointing that they haven't stuck with the Rust practice of picking short or abbreviated words when they're clearly unambiguous - such as "fn" instead of "func" or "function". E.g. why Résultat<...> when you can write just Résu? Why PeutÊtre and not Ptêt, very common in quick language, e.g. for texting or chatting?

I've notice there is "merde" method which is available in the example like in https://github.com/bnjbvr/rouille/blob/7e9523fe24026bff1a3a70fcc96c67b94675acae/examples/src/main.rs#L81C9-L81C14 https://github.com/bnjbvr/rouille/blob/7e9523fe24026bff1a3a7... Merde is an alias for "calisse" and "oups" , see https://github.com/bnjbvr/rouille/blob/7e9523fe24026bff1a3a70fcc96c67b94675acae/examples/src/main.rs#L81C9-L81C14 https://github.com/bnjbvr/rouille/blob/7e9523fe24026bff1a3a7...

"PeutÊtre" => "Option" is the clearest evidence this is shitposting, because Option is also a French word. But the best one is "merde" | "calisse" | "oups" => "panic"

lol, the author (or whoever translated) doesn't know that "super" doesn't mean "génial" in the context it would be used in. "super" is also a Latin word that's valid French. > Au-dessus de, exprimant une supériorité dans la qualité https://www.larousse.fr/dictionnaires/francais/super-/75409 https://www.larousse.fr/dictionnaires/francais/super-/75409

  I'm pretty sure they know, and that's what makes it funny. There's an entire genre of internet humor based on using incorrect (because of homophone/homograph words) english-to-french translation. For example saying "vérifie les buches" for "check the logs".

    Yeah that was my understanding and why I found it so funny!

  It’s intentional and meant as a joke.

    I might have picked "desu" as the keyword, a shorter phonetic respelling of dessus. Since the super keyword is often repeated in Rust, this would lead to code like `utilisons desu::desu::desu::a()`, for some added Japanese flavor.

    Even so, it parallels a real thing that happens in non-joke contexts, where they avoid valid French when it looks "too English": https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45773624 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45773624

  Haha there are other cases where there is valid French that isn't accepted in French speaking areas because it looks too similar to English. 1) Quebec wanted "arrêt" instead of "stop" on stop signs, even though the latter is accepted as valid French and used in France. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stop_sign?utm_source=chatgpt.com&useskin=vector#Canada https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stop_sign?utm_source=chatgpt.c... 2) The use of the TLD .gouv.fr instead of .gov.fr, even though "gov" is a recognizable contraction of the intended French word "gouvernement". (No, it's not a valid defense that "'gov' would be pronounced differently from 'gouv'": the English TLD .com is a contraction of "commercial", even though the "com" in "dot-com" is pronounced differently from the "com" in "commercial".)
