⚖️ Looking for a lawyer for Rust ⚖️
I really want someone to tell me I'm wrong, because if I'm right, then Rust is crazy crap that needs to be hidden from people before it's too late (yes, JS, I'm talking about you)

Basically, I've already prepared 5 posts about my dissatisfaction with Rust yesterday, and 3 more are on the way... and they're not about syntax at all, but about seemingly basic things that really affect coding... and this is after only 2 hours of coding a utility for work...
But before I start posting, I want to find a Rust advocate so I don't scare people away with my nonsense.
I need someone who has written in production in Rust and definitely in C and Go / Java / C# (because without production experience in other languages, you might not understand that something is a problem with the language itself) to comment on the posts and correct / explain / refute what I've written.
Because if I'm right in my claims, then Rust is the result of an incestuous relationship between PHP + C, with a generous helping of JS thrown in, and that's the most explosive mix of bastards I can imagine.

If you are ready to do so yourself or invite colleagues, I would be VERY grateful!
It would be best if you also reply here or in a private message, or put an emoji to indicate that you are ready to be an advocate.

And the more lawyers, the better

I'm not an expert in Rust, and neither are you.
I think we're not children. Therefore, we can handle your opinion. 😉
I suspect a simple disclaimer like "these are the first steps" might be enough.
@ [ $davids.sh ] · # 810
I've repeatedly encountered situations where I initially yell, "Why the hell?" and then, through actual experience, understand, "Ah, that's why the hell." Therefore, I want to find someone who has already gone through this path and can explain what we simply cannot know.
@ [ $davids.sh ] · # 811
Because my arguments will be logical, but this "logic" comes from experience without Rust, perhaps it's done that way for a specific reason, which makes this behavior more correct.
@ Artur G · # 815
Your experience is just wrong. 😁
@ [ $davids.sh ] · # 817
There's no such thing as a "wrong" experience) everyone has their own)
@ Artur G · # 818
It was a joke. 😁
@ [ $davids.sh ] · # 819
This is just me going to psychotherapy too often, so it's a reflex)
@ Nikita · # 820
You probably need to write in the Rust chat.
@ [ $davids.sh ] · # 822
Oh, great idea! Do you know any good ones?

Wrote it, thank you!

Can I forward links to posts? I know it's considered advertising, so I don't do it, but I definitely want to write posts myself (otherwise, discussions won't be saved properly, I keep a blog as historical notes, so to speak).
@ Artur G · # 842
Have you tried adding a link to a post within a post?
@ [ $davids.sh ] · # 843
?
@ user5334424380 · # 844
This is going to be some bullshit, not a discussion.
@ [ $davids.sh ] · # 845
And that's the problem, I want the discussion to be under the posts, because otherwise I won't be able to make sense of it later in someone else's chat.
@ Artur G · # 846
Well, to insert a link to a post in a channel in a post.
@ [ $davids.sh ] · # 847
Do you mean writing a message in someone else's chat with a link to the post?
@ Artur G · # 848
No.
Like this: https://t.me/arthur_g_writes/28
@ [ $davids.sh ] · # 849
Well, it's still considered advertising for the group, so you can't post that in other people's channels without the admin's permission.
@ Artur G · # 850
If someone reposts, there will be a link there.
@ [ $davids.sh ] · # 851
If someone reposts from a channel, then at the top there will be the channel name as a link, followed immediately by the post.
@ Artur G · # 852
Then it's probably easier to give up.
