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

Why rust?
Rewriting stuff in rust was kind of a meme long before LLM’s. Rust also is famously a powerful language with a steep learning curve, the latter being irrelevant if you don’t actually have to bother to learn it.
Rust is memory efficient and apparently safer. Think the barrier for entry is also a little higher than langs like C from what I hear.
Yeah Rust is a fairly low level language like C/C++ which should usually give you similar performance once compiled. The reason Rust was made and had become somewhat popular even before LLMs is the language and compiler are very strict. This means it is much harder to introduce things like memory leaks and concurrency issues. However this also means that it is generally more difficult to work in and learn than C due to needing to work within those restrictions especially when trying to get a new project going. However that does mean if you are going to do most of the coding via LLM tools then those tools are bound by the same strict rules and thus less likely to introduce hard to fix/reproduce memory issues.
I’ve heard someone say its because the compiler explains errors more clearly than that of other languages and claude or whatever can correct it more easily
Because wanna be programmers don’t want to learn a real language like c or c++ or anything else. Thats from what I hear from coworkers. I just use python, sql, and c++ for basic crap.
Why is c++ a “real” language and not rust? It’s a tool. All programmers need to know logic above a specific language.
I guess being memory safe makes it not real. It’s only a real programming language if you can easily cause a BSOD and leave attack surfaces from improper memory handling.
Yeah buddy I know logic and c and c++ are better lower level languages and they give you more understanding and freedom in you tool usage. Rust was made for people who don’t develop. Hope that helps you understand what I said more without you putting words in my mouth.
I mostly use C but your Rust disrespect is crazy
Dis you?
Yes? That comment is not disrespecting Rust. I think you should learn to read.
Oh, I read perfectly well. You praised Rust, then dismissed 99.99% of its projects as “slop”.
I think you should learn to formulate an argument without relying on ad-hominems and logical fallacies. Then you might have an opinion worth expressing.
Both can be true. Language is great. Users are mostly slop coders. What makes you think second invalidates the first?
“Ad hominem” is when you try to discredit an argument BY attacking its speaker. Someone saying something about you that you took negatively doesn’t mean they’re trying to attack your argument that way. They might just be changing the subject off of noticing problems with your approach.
Having a deeper understanding is useful, for sure. But how does that make one language real over another?
You’ve read a lot of books but somehow they still haven’t made you smart.
Lmao cpp is not a real language, it’s c with a bunch of OOP bloat on top. Imagine calling React a language.
Tell me you don’t have a degree or a job without telling me.
you think only people with jobs can have informed opinions? weird take but ok.
