Rust RFCs Be Like

The meme shows a beautiful devolution of function syntax across programming languages, with a guy progressively losing his mind with excitement. Golang: func (){} - Mild interest. Kotlin: fun (){} - Growing enthusiasm because coding is suddenly "fun". Rust: fn (){} - Full-on excitement as we're saving precious keystrokes. Bash: (){} - Complete ecstasy. Who needs labels when you can just have parentheses and curly braces floating in the void? Four characters to two. That's 50% efficiency improvement. The CFO will be pleased.

GASP! The eternal language wars have claimed another victim! This poor soul is DROWNING in a tsunami of tears while Rust, C#, and Go fanboys engage in their never-ending holy war of "my language is better than yours." The drama! The tragedy! It's like watching three cults fight over who has the most superior compiler while the rest of us just want to ship some damn code without being lectured about memory safety, garbage collection, or goroutines for the 500th time. Meanwhile, this programmer is literally MELTING into a puddle of despair because they probably just want to use whatever gets the job done without joining a programming language religion. The tears are indeed unfathomable!

OH. MY. CODE. The dating scene for programmers is just BRUTAL! Every single woman has her pick of the entire dev ecosystem - C++ guys, Python nerds, JavaScript hipsters - but there's only ONE arrow pointing to the Rust developer! 💅 That's right, honey! While the memory-leaking masses fight for attention, Rust developers are out here being the rare unicorns everyone wants. The rest are just sitting there with their garbage collection and undefined behaviors wondering why they're still single. Turns out being obsessed with ownership and borrowing isn't just for your code - it's relationship goals! 💯

Nobody cares what language your backend is written in. They only care if it's fast. Yet every Rust developer seems physically incapable of describing their code without using the phrase "blazingly fast" at least 47 times per conversation. The cult-like obsession with Rust's performance is matched only by the collective eye-rolling of everyone forced to listen to another sermon about zero-cost abstractions and memory safety.

BEHOLD! The pinnacle of Rust's existential crisis! The compiler is literally having an identity meltdown trying to convert an error to... itself?! 💀 It's like watching your GPS say "Unable to find current location because I don't know where I am." The sheer audacity of Rust to gaslight its own errors is why programmers wake up screaming at 3 AM. And yet we crawl back for more punishment because "memory safety" or whatever. The compiler isn't just strict - it's questioning the very fabric of error reality!

Look, I've been in the trenches long enough to know that "compiled without errors" hits different than any romantic gesture ever could. Your code compiling on the first try? That's basically winning the lottery. It's the developer equivalent of finding out your soulmate exists and they also think tabs are better than spaces. We've all been there—staring at the screen, hitting compile, bracing for impact like it's a bomb defusal. Then... nothing. No red text. No angry compiler screaming at you about missing semicolons or type mismatches. Just pure, unadulterated success. That dopamine rush is unmatched. The bar for happiness in software development is so low it's practically underground. We celebrate the absence of failure like it's a major achievement. Which, let's be honest, it kind of is.
