It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to [email protected]

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

If you’re complaining about “bloody awful syntax” (which is probably the last thing I’d criticize rust for) in the same breath as “just use C++ instead” (paraphrased but that’s what you mean, right?) I don't think I have anything else to say to you.

I hope you have a nice weekend!

I meant borrow checker could be done in C++ lol C++ can always get verbose syntactically when working in large projects. Honestly I prefer Go and Dart's C-like syntax

Memory safety isn’t really the main draw on rust for me. Traits and the very powerful enums are both higher on the list for me personally. There’s a reason people use rust for all sorts of things and projects of all sizes.
