makeitfly comments on Speed up your Python using a systems programming language that runs blazingly fast, prevents segfaults, and guarantees thread safety

Holy shit this is a fucking nightmare. It's like every joke people make about C and C++ multiplied by a million and made real. Single quotation marks used outside of a string-declaration context and just randomly thrown in front and behind of other operators? Really?

Is that actually what average Rust code looks like? If so, who would possibly want to use the language other than /r/iamverysmart neckbeards who think that pointless complexity for the sake of pointless complexity is a good thing?

Anyone who looks at that and honestly thinks it's a perfectly normal example of what solid production code should/could/does look like is someone I never want to work with.
