@max yeas this is you now die kill die die stab stab kill murder
@max i believed in you .
@max i rlly wanted to check out that rss feed thing you made but i am not installing deno im sorry maybe another day
@max another ryan dahl js runtime has hit the towers
@max they crumbled bc they didnt build them with BUN THE BEST JAVASCRIPT RUNTIME TO RRUN YOUR INFREASTRUCTURE ON USE BUN ITS FAST AND PERFECT TO BE RUN ON THE SERVER RUN JAVASCTRIPT ON THE SERVER RIGHT NOW
@max please dont
@max javascript is a curse and honestly it s impressive ppl do the things they do with it but i want is as far as possible from anything that isnt my web browser
@max oh i didnt go deep enough in the repos to actually figure that out am i an awful person did i judge too fast
(also im mainly joking in this whole thread )
@max the web browser project seems big how is that going ? also how is c# is it nice
@max gnu coding standard on the microsoft language , sounds awesome
@max i have no idea how gnu code looks fortunately ive only used languages with very strict formatting rules and with strict formatters ( black for python and cargo fmt in rust )
ig there isnt much to be formatted in fortran code
@max pep8 actually has very strict rules so black ends up being a very strict (=> good) formatter
@max maybe i should try c# i might enjoy it actually ive seen ppl happy with it , but also idk i might want to try java first so i can do minecraft mods and android apps

I agree! The main point: it's hard to move away from — that is indeed so and it's very important when you're using it commercially, as for other disadvantages — they have their counterparts in other languages, the article even gives a few examples of those.
One other thing that strikes me: indeed, it has very opinionated defaults and your code is to be error-prone if you're writing it just by looking at others' code, which is important for junior devs…
@fiore @max @snacks
Indeed, the compiler doesn't warn you about shit… But in case with Rust you're in some cases doing things in a very inefficient way just to make the compiler SHUT THE FUCK UP — because you feel that re-writing it in an idiomatic way for Rust might make your head explode 🤯
All in all, nothing is perfect, the article is absolutely right about that.
