Rust is the pretentious PHD student of programming languages

s,Rust,Haskell

What't your go to?

I’m just a humble Python pleb, learning a bit of Go.

These days I mostly do data modeling with dbt (a SQL framework for data warehouse environments). “Analytics Engineer” is the trendy title for what I do.

I was just shitposting about Rust 😂 but the more I learn about its complicated type system, the less I care to try learning it

Zig seems like an interesting take on a modern systems language

True, but IRL all the pretentious PHD students use python. It's how we got where we are today.

🤣🤣🤣

Phd students do love python

I also love Python and I never studied CS, and I certainly do not have a PHD 😂

Python certainly has its flaws, but it’s old af. Go seems like a great balance of performance and ease of use. But at the end of the day, it’s all tradeoffs, and certainly Rust has its place too 🤷‍♂️

"we're better than you. and we know it"

In some ways, they are not wrong 😂

But there are very few applications that actually need something like Rust

exactly

likewise, a stats phd does more harm than good 92% of the time IRL

"tom, IDGAF if its statistically significant"
