I’ve been a professional programmer for nearly a decade and I just realized that C# is C++++ with the pluses stacked

I’m glad I wasn’t the only uncultured swine unaware of the ++++ = #

Yes, and that is on purpose! It was always meant to be a joke on C++ :)

Me too - maybe because I was distracted by the irony that C# devs are typically the opposite of sharp… Or because it’s MicroShit and I didn’t give a flippin fuck ;)

Issue is, Rust is not a drop-in replacement for C. The memory safety features are just one part, and since Rust is also a “weakly” functional language, thus its prefered to write such code with it.

It’s not that bad, besides who cares with machines being as fast as they are nowadays?

I care, when I need to compile a lot of stuff multiple times on not-as-fast machines. I’ll create a private repo powered by my workstation just for this. For C stuff I don’t need to, because I can just use my workstations power via distcc.

I once saw an issue someone made for some database and said that they were learning Rust and if the database was rewritten in Rust then they could help contribute!

C Tesseract has this interstellar vibe and brings quotes like the following, but with a totally different meaning:

  • “Years of [compilation error] messages”
  • “People disn’t build this Tesseract”; “Not yet… But one day. Not you and me but people, people who’ve evolved beyond the four dimensions we know”
  • “You’ve got to leave something behind”

I’m waiting for the marvel cinematic universe movie about filling out TPS reports and preparing for Y2k… it’s guaranteed to do better than Black Adam.

Wasn’t that the Loki show, where all of time is run by a boring dystopian corporate bureaucracy?

Now that I think of it, I guess you’re right, that show probably did do better than Black Adam.
