The biggest reason is because it's not work time. End of.

How is it in poor taste?

Yeah like I said they should be a standard door handle.

Set rules for on-call work during emergencies, defined rules for termination and communication regarding work from home policy changes.

The strike was called for the week of the election to put pressure on the negotiations. They are still ongoing.

The American people's fight has just started. This is far from the only important election.

But chances are they're fucked.

They literally voted for it. You can't say don't blame the people who chose it. Blame both.

Tbh as an experienced programmer I knew exactly what it was straight away. And I don't know rust. I would imagine the others are similar.

The reason that example is simpler is because JSON is literally JavaScript Object Notation.

It's also not the same thing. HashMap have type parameters. So you can only add strings to that HashMap whereas you can add anything in js. Does that code even compile?

You can also do "text".to_string() which simplifies it more.

I feel you're quite inexperienced and once you do more in different languages you'll begin to realise why things are like this.

Rust is a compiled language with static typing so these things are required for the compiler to do its job.

It's also a performance focused language and would blow ts/js out of the water completely on that metric.

Languages are just tools and they all have advantages and disadvantages. You use the right tool for the job.

For me you really aren't selling it.

When the answer to major draw backs with a language is use it better that's a dead end for me.

Some of the greatest programming minds have been using c for a long time and we still have a huge amount of dangerous vulnerabilities all the time.

The language is fundamentally flawed and other languages have demonstrated that you can get the same flexibility, expressiveness and performance without these flaws.

Again with the lack of many standard lib constructs. I now have to trust that every lib i use was written by a serious expert. as they'll need to implement so much themselves rather than trusting the core language team, who you hope would know it better than most.

And again with OOP. Why hack it into a language rather than use a language that supports it.

It's beginning to feel like people are just clinging to c because it's what they are used to. All I seem see are justifications of its flaws and not any reasons to actually use it.

If it came out today you'd have an incredibly hard time convincing anyone to use it over other languages.

It's not a thing in other countries

Pretty much is in reality. But not literally zero, no.

I would say being more inclusive is bringing value.

There's a massive issue with women being under-represented in STEM and little things like this only further cement that.

It's casual sexism. I'm not suggesting they are intentionally hating on women.

Assuming it's a man because it's programming is fundamentally sexist.

What downsides would they be?

That would be the difference in cubic yard (27-1)

Here we're comparing the total volume. 27 is 27 times bigger than 1 (27 / 1)
