Can’t escape AI slop projects from meat proxies man. Every single open source project smells like Claude Code recently. Sad times.

    I’d hate Rust, but Lunduke hates Rust because trans people write in Rust, so I like Rust just to piss off Lunduke’s homophobic ass

      I don’t know why people would hate rust. It is a fast, memory safe language. There is nothing wrong with it in itself. Its just that the fact it is significantly easier catch mistakes as it usually won’t compile if there is a problem, which makes it good for AI to use as it is harder to screw up long term.

        I don’t hate Rust, but I do get annoyed by and suspicious of the evangelism for it I often see. This is by no means unique to Rust but it does seem to be seeing a very aggressive push even into trying to fix/replace tried and tested things that aren’t broken. It has that feeling of aggressively taking everything over.

            Those damn woke ipad kids with their programming languages and being who they are and being unashamed of being gay, how could you possibly let them be themselves?

            before anyone misconstrues i’m literally gay and making fun of Lunduke

        The hate is at least partly because there is and has always been a holy war over programming languages. Your choice of programming language greatly affects me. The software you write in language A (usually) can’t interoperate well with the software I write in language B. You end up with duplication of effort and many implementations of a thing, one for each language, usually more than one, with differences between them that makes things complicated. You have more choices when there are more languages, adding complexity to the making of software. I would say Rust gets the brunt of the hate because it’s new, but in 2026 that’s not really true anymore.
