Both Subs Are For Jokes

The perfect progression of a tech bro's descent into madness! First, they're all chill about making an app. Then they drop the "backend in Rust" bomb like they've discovered fire. But when they reveal their Svelte frontend, you can practically hear the hipster energy intensifying. And the cherry on top? A whopping 69 users (nice) that turns them into a literal demon. Classic case of "I used the trendiest tech stack but forgot about the whole 'solving actual problems' part." Happens to the best of us... or worst of us, depending on your perspective.

Oh look, another Rust hater crawled out of their legacy codebase! This savage takedown of Rust's infamous borrow checker ("variables weren't made to be borrowed") and compilation times hits where it hurts. The comparison to PHP as the original "rewrite shit for a laugh" language is particularly brutal. The bottom part mocks the stereotypical Rust evangelist trifecta: terminal screenshots showing compile times, the anime-inspired aesthetic of some community members, and that eye-searing hot pink logo. And that .try_into().unwrap() pickup line? Pure cringe gold that perfectly captures the "I'm smarter than you" energy that makes some Rust advocates insufferable. The irony is that while mocking Rust zealots, this meme has become exactly what it hates—another tribal battle cry in the endless programming language wars.

C developers clutching their precious malloc() and free() functions like they're the last chocolate chip cookies on earth! 😱 Meanwhile, Rust is over here with its memory safety guarantees, and C devs are LOSING THEIR MINDS! "What do you MEAN I can't cause undefined behavior and segfaults anymore?! How will I express my ARTISTIC FREEDOM through dangling pointers?!" The sheer AUDACITY of Rust forcing developers to write code that doesn't randomly explode in production! THE HORROR!

The perfect illustration of every Rust evangelist's nightmare - someone who's perfectly content with their "inferior" programming language. The gray NPC face getting increasingly angry at someone who dares to be satisfied with their current performance is peak programming tribalism. It's like telling a CrossFit enthusiast you're happy with your occasional jog around the block. The audacity! How DARE you be content when there's memory safety and blazing speed to be had?! Next thing you'll tell me is that you don't even care about zero-cost abstractions!

Ah, the Rust evangelism strike force in their natural habitat. Above ground, we have the beautiful C language basking in the sunlight, nurturing an ecosystem that's been thriving for decades. Meanwhile, underground, the Grim Reaper himself is filming a documentary about the angry Rust crab that's convinced everyone C programmers are just one null pointer dereference away from total system collapse. After 20 years in this industry, I've seen this movie before. Some poor C dev is just trying to climb out of the pit while Rust zealots are down there with their memory safety pitchforks and ownership model torches. Sure, my code segfaults occasionally, but at least I don't have to fight the borrow checker at 3 AM while questioning my career choices.

Ah, the classic beginner's dilemma. You're just trying to pick up coding, overwhelmed by the buffet of languages spread before you—Python, JavaScript, C#, Java—each one promising to be the one . Meanwhile, seasoned devs are in the corner cackling with their Rust bottles like some coding cult. The truth? After 15 years in this industry, I've watched languages come and go faster than startup CEOs after funding runs out. The beginners panic about which pill to swallow while the veterans know the real drug was memory safety and zero-cost abstractions all along. Rust is like that friend who does CrossFit—they won't shut up about it, but damn if they aren't in better shape than the rest of us garbage-collected peasants.
