Spicy (?) take:

"It's #Rust, of course" is the software dev edition of "I'm #vegan, of course"

(Nothing wrong with either, just the (usual) smugness can be annoying AF.)

EDIT: Added the 2nd "of course"

@czottmann Rust is the new Ruby on Rails.

How is being #vegan a bad move for our world?

@janneke @cakemix I didn't say that, did I?

@czottmann @cakemix
No, you didn't.

You equated someone coming out as a vegan to someone who [re]writes everything in Rust while also asserting that would be the most logical thing to do.

And you said that someone who merely states that they're a #vegan is annoying as fuck. I find that interesting.

@janneke @cakemix That's one way to read it.

@czottmann @cakemix
Yeah I guess if you stand up trying to bring more awareness, care and kindness into the world, people will find that annoying.

I'm sure many (fresh?) #vegans would do good to remember that the kindness towards non-human animals that they fight for, should certainly be extended to other humans, just another species of animal.

@janneke @cakemix I've no issue with either veganism or Rust.

@czottmann @janneke @cakemix yeah sure 'annoying AF' is absolutely positive 🙄

@Seitansbraten @janneke @cakemix Ah, *that's* where you guys are coming from. Should've written "I'm vegan, of course" instead

Yeah, that's on me

Right, now I get it.

It really didn't make any sense to me :)
