What kind of commentary here have you heard here around the Rust community? I haven’t heard much. Certainly nothing close to violent. I’ve heard lots of shit talking regarding Go because they refused to introduce generics - and to be fair,

Waiting for a few follow-ups: “What every programmer should know about vowels” “You and your vowels” “What the vowels have wrought” “We’re hiring! Vowels (YC 26)” And last but not least: “Things I Won’t Work With: Vowels”

This is a culture of a country that encourages rampant drug use as a solution to all sorts of problems. It does not surprise me they want to fix deep seated childhood trauma issues by putting someone on molly. It’s ridiculous. If there was

A few things that jump out: 1) This over all seems like an advertisement piece wrapped up as an FAQ. 2) The definition of narcissism here is so loose and encompassing so many things it makes me wonder if these people can actually distinguis

I avoided going into all the myriad of things that pets are good for because it’s not the point. I grew up with a small backyard graveyard of all the pets I’ve had over the years, some given some adopted some stray, so I’m very far from ant
