  • i think one factor (though definitely not all) of the dislike is the politics of the project, which are fairly inclusive and kind. some people can’t stomach that. another factor might be that the mere existence of rust implies that a lot of people are not the 100x rockstar developer they might aspire to be. maybe it’s also just a simple change = bad. though i have seen people who dislike rust also gravitate towards zig, and that also has some big differences. maybe it’s a hate towards mozilla? when i talk to people who hate rust they don’t articulate themselves well, so i have to speculate and i get nowhere. one thing i do hear about rust a lot is that it’s ugly, but I don’t really get that. i can’t personally fathom disdaining to use a tool simply because of looks, and i also don’t personally think rust is ugly.

    to be fair apparently they’re only in los angeles county, but I didn’t know whether to write LA grocery chain, LA county grocery chain or californian grocery chain. now the middle option looks best, but i was mildly brain deficient at the time (as well as all the time).

    the travis scott (popular rapper) x (in collaboration with) erewhon (LA county upscale grocery chain) dubai chocolate (chocolate with a significant filling of pistachio, kadayif and tahini) labubu (chinese plush toy brand) matcha (finely ground green tea) latte (coffee drink made out of espresso and steamed milk) is reportedly in the works.





  • What I want to see either outlawed or behind strict age verification is online gambling, including in videogames as loot boxes as well things like counter strike skin casinos. That would be dope and cool and epic but it seems like there’s not much political will for that sort of idea. It will probably take a high ranking politician’s child spending thousands to gamble to get any sort of response.
