      The versions still make me reluctant to try rust. I’m sure it’s reliable in theory but I’m always getting cockblocked when someone’s python project doesn’t work because of dependencies and different versions. I once remade a python 3d object format converter in c++ because that was easier than a) fixing whatever dependency and runtime version shenanigans or b) using whatever bullshit ass Windows-only propriety software most people used to make that file conversion

        I use both python and rust extensively and they are literally day and night when it comes to dependency issues. The only problems I’ve ever had with rust are when there is a non-rust dependency that’s not cross platform (which would be a problem in c as well). The editions (which are different from versions) are nothing to be afraid of either, iirc a rust 2021 project can depend on 2018 and 2015 libraries without issues.

      Bash’s posix mode still has a lot of bashisms. The only way to test true posix compliance is to test with other shells like dash and ash. I have found this is the case a lot of time. People will say it’s POSIX compliant shell, but it’ll obviously only be tested in bash Like at that point just make it a bash script, since pretty much every system under the sun has it.

    And don’t even get me started with C# and Node.js projects, chances are you will need to reimplement the entire application just to get the project out of vulnerable library versions.

    I am sick of these meme. Of course we know c is better than python on many aspects but python is also. Lets say you are building… I an continuing, I hope you are capable of continuing it by yourself. Everyone knows which is better for their particular needs, so just let these memes go. We can be more creative with memes
