    For this to be accurate you need to change it to “why don’t you rewrite it in rust”? Rust fans say this so often they made it an acronym (RIIR).

    This is literally any other programmer when I use Python for a project, telling me to switch to their preferred language instead because “Python is just for scripting.”

        Highfive! It is, and part of the reason I use it so often is because I just enjoy programming in it. I feel like enjoying the process is important even if the result is a fraction of a second slower than if I had used another language, because enjoying the process means I’m actually going to get the thing done.

          @whelk
          Indeed. It doesn’t have to run fast if we are talking applications where performance isn’t important.

          Haha 😅 well there is nothing like the AUR.

          I have an Arch container image set up for this purpose but the fonts broke after upgrading it 🥺

            Checkout distro boxes, it let’s you install a little mini arch system and stream the apps as if they were native to whatever distro you want through x11. Super fast and simple to setup and means you can use aur on anything you want.

    Beginner developers when they realize that the programming language that you use changes from a case to case basic:

    No, no. Python is for harassing the beginners, who can’t switch from anything yet.

    Rust is for switching to.

    Even though I’m mostly a Python programmer now I don’t do this but i know so many Python programmers who do this; the thing that is even more annoying is when some of them make up shit trying to prove python is better for a usecase they know NOTHING about
