Do They Know About Rust

Do They Know About Rust
HONEY, SWEETIE, DARLING! The absolute AUDACITY of claiming English is the most powerful language while Rust developers are literally having existential crises trying to appease the almighty borrow checker! ๐Ÿ’… English might get you a coffee at Starbucks, but Rust prevents entire categories of memory errors and makes your code practically bulletproof! The programming language equivalent of having bodyguards, a security system, AND a moat with alligators! Meanwhile, English can't even decide if "read" is pronounced "reed" or "red" without context! THE DRAMA!

I Know Why But Why

I Know Why But Why
Oh my gosh, this is every C programmer's nightmare! ๐Ÿ˜ฑ C libraries screaming at thread safety is like watching Tom from Tom & Jerry discover that the cheese is actually a mousetrap! We technically know we should handle thread safety properly, but then we're like "my single-threaded prototype works fine, why would I complicate things?" Fast forward to production where mysterious bugs appear at 3 AM and suddenly we're questioning our entire career choices! The number of times I've written "// TODO: make thread-safe" and then completely forgotten about it is... well, let's just say it's a personal attack at this point! ๐Ÿ™ˆ

True Or False?

True Or False?
The statement "C and C++ are perfect languages for building high-performance systems" is true. The statement "C and C++ aren't only some of the easiest programming languages" is false. So false it hurts. Like segmentation fault hurts. Anyone who calls C/C++ "easy" has either been coding since the 70s or enjoys manual memory management the way some people enjoy getting teeth pulled without anesthesia. Sure, they're blazing fast, but so is falling down a flight of stairs.
