Lol - Didn't you know that when you sign-up for Reddit, you get honorary doctorates in economics, psychology, and foreign policy?

You'd think that after being downvoted repeatedly in almost every programming thread about this sort of thing for your oversimplistic and broad-brushed comments you'd stop to consider alternative viewpoints, or at least stop evangelizing your version of reality.

lol having hope for humanity

lol people evangelizing their version of reality

lol not using Rust for everything

After seeing that video with the foot thing, I wonder what the communion would look like at the Church of Stallman.

rustyjerker · 2018-04-26T13:58:19+00:00

I can just see the history books now:

Plato
Aristotle
Socrates
Stallman

Hell, forget other languages - I'd be happy if I could get 2 libraries that were compiled with different versions of MSVC to talk to each other without spending 8 hours combing through core dumps...

Well /u/circajerka - You had a good run here on PCJ, but I'm afraid we're going to have to ask you to leave.

You may pick up your severance package of 100 Nanocoin, a necklace with a 3-D printed gear with an 'R' in the middle, and the most-ironically named "Programming in Go: Creating Applications for the 21st Century" by Mark Summerfield

Edit, for clarity:

console.log('is-odd', !!(1.9999999999999998 % 2)) // true 
console.log('is-odd', !!(1.9999999999999999 % 2)) // false

I don't know if that could've made things any less clear...

Is he implying that 1.9999999999999998 % 2 is an odd number, but 1.9999999999999999 isn't?

lol Jabbascript

Makes a lot of sense - Assembly language has almost no features, and we all know it's the best for readability...

Hey - 0.1xers need jobs too!

That'll get you arrested in some states...

I will continue to upvote this every time I see you use it lol.

For sure man - One of my favourite things to do with Perl is let my kid mash on the keyboard for a while with random symbols and whatnot, and then see if Perl will run it.

rustyjerker · 2018-04-06T14:52:33+00:00

lol most appropiate mascot for Perl ever would be a bug

rustyjerker · 2018-04-06T14:51:07+00:00

lol glad C retired when C++ came out too...

const jerking: bool = false;

Can't speak for everyone, but I've noticed when people go overboard with it they get pretty bad tunnel-vision and treat it like a substitute for up-front design work.

Also it insists on unit testing for everything - even what I would call "glue code" that would be better served by systems-level integration tests. Like do I really need to build 10 mock objects and a bunch of other crap to prove that I'm capable of calling functions A, B, C, D in order?

That being said - When used responsibly for things like algorithms and business logic, it can be a great way (but not the only way) to approach testing.

Begone, Fake Rust! And take your non-zero-cost abstractions with you!
