      I’ve found whenever people complain about rust code they can only point out how it’s different but not why it’s worse and I can usually point to a reason why it’s better.

      to be fair, I get sometimes it’s difficult to pinpoint why something is bad and even “being different” can be a legitimate criticism on its own

        People who learnt structural OOP without actually understanding typing system and their benefits really struggle with learning Rist as they try to map classes onto structs and it just doesn’t work.

        Traits are not inheritance. Box is not polymorphism. Rust is not C++ with more keywords.

      It IS fine, I though the comic was referring snake_case as disgusting. I was uncomfortable too at first but I got used to it

        I used to be a PascalCase guy myself, but that changed recently when I had to use React (coming from embbeded C)

        I am working with a C embedded framework that uses snake_case, and switching between the two, I realized that it is a lot easier to find information with snake_case for me.
