I have to say I’m not terribly big fan of videos with a title that is opposite of the message. It feels cheap. “Don’t do X unless you want [long list of benefits of doing X]”. Why do we need this?

A few years ago many countries were marketing themselves with “Don’t go to [country name]”, and it was cringe already then.

Edit: I actually didn’t have any patience to watch the video initially, apart from skimming here and there, so I missed the fact that the speaker hasn’t seen the slides beforehand and it’s some kind of a joke presentation. Would have been nice to see it in the title or video description.

Yes. It’s somewhere between trolling and clickbait with some rule skirting and should really be head on banned.

I see, that explains it. Would have been useful to put that somewhere in the title or video description, tho.

I get what you mean but I don’t really think that applies here. He’s arguing that Rust is worse than Go because Gopher is better than Ferris, it really isn’t that serious.
