If Not Friend Then Why Friend Shaped

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!

THE ABSOLUTE AUDACITY of web developers passionately debating C++ vs Rust while having ZERO experience with either! 😱 It's like watching someone argue about the best way to perform brain surgery after watching a 5-minute YouTube tutorial. "Well ACTUALLY, Rust's memory safety is superior" says the person whose entire coding experience is copying jQuery snippets from Stack Overflow. The philosophical debate rages on while their actual React app is still using 47 dependencies to center a div. Pure. Comedic. GENIUS.

The entire internet is basically a Jenga tower of dependencies, and that tiny block labeled "Rust" is holding up way more than it should. Remember when we found out a critical piece of OpenSSL was maintained by one sleep-deprived guy? Same energy. The modern tech stack is just a bunch of precarious blocks stacked by people who left the company three years ago, and nobody wants to touch it because "it works." Until it doesn't.

The ultimate renewable resource isn't solar or wind—it's the endless energy of C++ developers triggering Rust evangelists. Just say "I really like C++" through a solar-powered loudspeaker, and watch an army of Rust zealots charge uphill to lecture you about memory safety. They'll inevitably fall through your trapdoor, spin your turbine on their way down, and get neatly deposited at the bottom—ready to climb again when you repeat your "controversial" statement. Forget nuclear fusion; we've harnessed something far more reliable: programmer tribalism.

Ah, the classic "let me put every tech sticker on my laptop" phase that somehow never ends. That sheet is basically a developer's Tinder profile - trying to impress everyone while secretly knowing half those technologies hate each other. VSCode and Rust living peacefully next to PHP and JavaScript is like putting cats and dogs in the same tiny apartment and expecting them to share the remote. That Go mascot at the bottom is just waiting for the chaos to unfold. It's the tech equivalent of wearing both Nike and Adidas to the same gym.

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!
