god that fasterthanlime dude really hates Go

he has some good points regarding Go, but as someone who frequently pushes Rust, this post sorta echoes the general vibe I've got any time when interacting with the Rust community: intellectual elitism

and that was when I was interacting with them with Rust projects I was working on, not as an "outsider"

one of the main people behind Go in response to this article posted: blog.aurynn.com/2015/12/16-contempt-culture

which is a good read

@kim yeah it's very good. Also applies to javascript, which is basically the most accessible language to start in because everyone has a web browser...

@f0x yeah absolutely. I've definitely been guilty of this contempt at times. I have strong opinions on what i, personally, would rather code in, but i need to remember to keep it at _just_ that.

@kim yeah i'd still have the strong opinions against php and java (and javascript way back when) but then realize how much i hate when people talk about js that way now that i code in it for everything..
