rust Memes

The internet is basically a Jenga tower of questionable engineering decisions. At the very bottom, we've got C developers manually allocating memory for dynamic arrays—because who needs garbage collection when you can have segmentation faults? Above that foundation of tears sits DNS (the system that translates human-readable website names into IP addresses) and the Linux Foundation (keeping the lights on while everyone else has fun). Then we've got the unpaid open-source developers—those magnificent souls whose thankless work powers 90% of the internet while they survive on ramen and GitHub stars. AWS and Cloudflare are the duct tape holding everything together, while AI dangles precariously off the side like an afterthought. Microsoft is apparently doing... something... with Angry Birds energy? Meanwhile, Rust developers are zooming around in their little rocket ship, telling everyone their code is "memory safe" for the 47th time today. And at the tippy-top of this architectural abomination? That's you, my friend, just trying to watch cat videos while the entire digital infrastructure—built on WASM, V8, and whatever "LEFT-PAD" is referring to—teeters beneath you. The miracle isn't that the internet works—it's that it hasn't collapsed under the weight of its own absurdity.

Ah yes, the classic GitHub language breakdown that makes absolutely no sense. Assembly taking up 27.6% of the codebase? Either you've built the next NASA space shuttle or you accidentally committed your node_modules folder and it contained some ancient compiler written by dinosaurs. Meanwhile, Rust sitting at a modest 8.9% is just enough to mention in your job interviews that you're "exploring modern systems programming." The 22.4% "Other" is where all the actual work happens – probably Python scripts that do the real heavy lifting while the Assembly code just sits there looking intimidating.
