Both Subs Are For Jokes

Oh. My. GOD! The absolute TRAGEDY of Rust developers! 💀 Top panel: They're Olympic champions when it comes to TALKING about Rust - pointing guns, taking names, ready to convert every programmer within a 50-mile radius! Bottom panel: The soul-crushing reality of actually having to WRITE Rust code, hunched over like they're carrying the weight of the borrow checker on their shoulders! The duality of every Rust evangelist - preaching memory safety by day, quietly fighting with compiler errors by night! The DRAMA!

The C++ Olympic gold medalist celebrates victory in the first 5 panels, only to get absolutely destroyed by Rust in the final frame. Classic story of our industry - spend decades mastering pointer arithmetic and manual memory management, then some new language comes along with a borrow checker and suddenly you're obsolete. C++17 promised better memory safety features, but let's be honest - it's like putting a band-aid on a chainsaw wound. Meanwhile Rust sits on the podium smugly preventing segfaults at compile time while every other garbage-collected language watches from second place. Ten years of debugging dangling pointers and suddenly I'm supposed to learn ownership semantics? Fine, I'll update my resume.

The classic "Flex Tape" solution meme, but make it programming! Some manager somewhere is watching performance tank because of "mediocre developers" and "slow code due to inefficient algorithms" when suddenly—BAM!—someone slaps on "REWRITING TO RUST" like it's magical duct tape that'll fix everything. Spoiler alert: Throwing a trendy language at architectural problems is like putting racing stripes on a broken car. Sure, your memory management will be safer, but those same mediocre developers will just write mediocre Rust code instead. The compiler will scream, deadlines will extend, and somewhere a project manager's eye is twitching violently.

The circle of tech life is complete. Remember judging your parents for saying "what's a browser?" Now here we are, staring at Rust's borrow checker like it's quantum physics written in hieroglyphics. After 15 years of coding, I've evolved from "I can learn any language!" to "Does this new framework spark joy? No? Then it's dead to me." The tech fatigue is real - we've all become the very technophobes we swore to replace.

OMG, someone actually created a programming language to write code for Scratch - you know, that block-based programming tool designed for CHILDREN! 💀 The absolute AUDACITY of creating a text-based compiler with Rust that outputs to Scratch! It's like building a rocket ship to drive to your mailbox! They even had the nerve to add GitHub Copilot support and error detection like it's some kind of serious development environment! Just look at that gorgeous code at the bottom - writing actual text to generate those cute little colorful blocks with the cat mascot. It's the programming equivalent of using a sledgehammer to hang a picture frame! I'm DYING! 😭

BEHOLD! The TypeScript mascot being STRANGLED by someone wearing a Rust bracelet! The AUDACITY! The DRAMA! This is basically the software equivalent of Game of Thrones, but with programming languages instead of noble houses! The Rust evangelists have gone TOO FAR this time - not content with telling everyone their memory-safe paradise is superior, they're now physically assaulting poor TypeScript! Next they'll be telling us that "undefined is not a function" wouldn't happen if we just rewrote everything in Rust! THE HORROR!
