Rust
Rust is an extremely poor attempt at a politically motivated [1]capitalist
[2]programming language and one of the prime examples of badly designed
software in general. It is extremely [3]harmful not just because of its
awful design and implementation and motivation, it also promotes [4]toxic
politics, tries to replace relatively good languages such as [5]C and,
worst of all, is gaining popularity among highly unqualified coding
monkeys, i.e. the majority of people creating technology nowadays, so it
is infecting everything and contributing to the downfall of technology.
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD STAY AS FAR AWAY AS POSSIBLE FROM RUST.
[6]LMAO https://github.com/mTvare6/hello-world.rs
Some things exist solely to give a really bad example of how it shouldn't
be done -- indeed, at least at this Rust succeeded.
It should be made clear that rust is [7]shit AND CANNOT BE FIXED, it is
awful from the ground up and the only way to deal with it is to delete it.
To mention just a few issues:
* Rust is [8]bloated as hell, it violates the most important philosophy
in programming: the [9]Unix philosophy, and tries to do everything at
once (i.e. follow the [10]Windows philosophy), following the spirit of
latest cancer such as [11]systemd. As such it sports TONS of
[12]dependencies even for trivial programs, its toolchains is huge,
complex and complicated. The repo has FKN OVER 200 MB OF SOURCE
CODE??? It probably doesn't have to be said it includes such
unnecessary trash as [13]generics, twisted [14]object obsession
("[15]traits"), [16]package manager, pushed [17]memory safety and
whatnot. It itself depends on extreme bloat like [18]Python,
[19]ninja, [20]cmake etc. Apparently compiling rust even requires
[21]Internet connection to download some bootstrap shit? Even SJW
littered places like [22]permacomputing wiki are just forced to admit
it's not a minimalist language by any stretch.
* It's just complete shit written, everyone complains it compiles slow
as hell (both rust programs and rust itself), it creates HUGE binaries
because it statically links all the dependencies and runtime
environment [23]LMAO.
* It's just badly designed as a language, taking the mainstream road of
bringing in more complexity, shiny new [24]paradigms and features,
accumulating layers of abstraction, adding handholders, "safety" OCD
etc., instead of rather taking as inspiration a good language such as
[25]C and trying to make it better by [26]SIMPLIFYING it. Their vision
is that of someone who just learned about computers and naturally
wants to just ADD MORE STUFF because "bigger is better", completely
ignoring experienced people who know from practice that actual
improvement lies in simplification.
* Rust is corporate [27]capitalist software sponsored by [28]Big Tech,
organizations and corporations like [29]Mozilla and [30]Micro$oft,
trying to perpetuate the philosophy of "[31]modern" anti-people
technology rather than steering it in [32]better direction. The Rust
brand is [33]trademarked and "protected" by corporations owning it.
Remember, a corporation NEVER sponsors anything without trying to buy
some control over that thing, "don't bite the hand that feeds you" is
not just a phrase.
* It has licensing/[34]freedom issues, specifically making it difficult
to exercise freedom 3 (legally modify software), see e.g.
https://web.archive.org/web/20191224132425/https://wiki.hyperbola.info/doku.php?id=en:main:rusts_freedom_flaws
and https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/open-source-misses-the-point.html
(criticism by [35]GNU itself). Its "[36]open source" label is just
[37]openwashing, it is "open source" in the same way [38]Android is
open source (it has a "FOSS" license but it is de facto centrally
controlled by some fascist group).
* Rust has no specification, it tries to discourage other
implementations and as such greatly hurts basic principles of freedom.
Lack of fixed specifications also creates [39]update culture etc.
* Due to the above, Rust is not really a language, it is more of a
"platform" or "software framework" for programs -- Rust is a
programming language in the same sense in which Google App Store is a
package manager. If it becomes the mainstream language, it will do to
computer programs what e.g. [40]Steam has done to video [41]games.
* Rust is [42]fascist [43]tranny software -- not because it is written
by trannsexuals, but because it sports political discrimination
through [44]codes of conduct and creating a de-facto monopoly on the
language (with [45]bloat monopoly, lack of specification, kicking
people out of development based on their political views etc.). Its
community is infamous for being extremely [46]toxic and [47]woke.
* Its selling point is supposed to be memory safety but that makes the
language extremely slow. For fast programs safety has to be turned off
but then you can just write in [48]C, so there is no point to Rust --
definitely not as a replacement for C.
* It ridiculously tries to be a "handholding system language", i.e. an
expert level language designed for beginners or incompetent people (of
course with the obvious goal to empower women forced into tech etc.).
Being written by pre-beginner level "[49]coders", it sets goals such
as "system language should tie your hands and prevent beginner
mistakes". It's like trying to design a fighter jet around the idea
that it will be operated by beginners and therefore e.g. removing fire
buttons or limiting top speed so as to limit dangers posed by sitting
an amateur pilot in a fighter jet.
* It is more than anything a political language trying to push
propaganda, send messages about minorities in tech instead of creating
good technology, and "[50]fight" and destroy languages invented by
straight white men -- the most popular activity of rust soydevs seems
to be rewriting already existing, well established, tested and greatly
optimized programs from scratch in rust. As such language it is mostly
written by angry minorities such as [51]girls and trannies who can't
much into technology, hence the completely shit design and
implementation.
* It tries to displace good languages such as [52]C and sadly, thanks to
its populism and political appeal, is becoming popular among masses of
coding monkeys who have no idea about technology.
* It is completely unnecessary in the first place, a good low level
language already exists: [53]C. If anything, we need to improve C by
making it [54]simpler, but overcomplicated C also already exists for
those who for some reason want to use a shit language: [55]C++, and
there are of course also slow and safe language well suited for
beginners, such as [56]Python. Rust is just flushing thousands of
manhours (prolly rather soiboihours) down the toilet.
* Also "rust", what a shitty name lol. Who comes up with these idiotic
names? Why do [57]modern languages and libraries have to be called
these shitty things like banana, unicorn hamburger, kangaroo space
shuttle etc.?
* TODO: MORE, but you get the idea
