    He used to be cool, but then he started following some corporate hype trends that make me suspicious, I think he is nearing retirement and doesn’t want to fight corpos anymore.

    The moment he accepted Rust officially on the kernel was the time I knew he got a bit too old to care anymore… This is just a continuation.

    Also is so curious to see the venn diagram of people supporting Rust and AI being mostly a circle. My theory is that Rust takes every piece of joy out of programming and thus the idea of never programming again becomes so attractive if you are surrounded by Rust.

      I personally like Rust fine, it’s not my favorite or my strongest language but we’ve suffered stuff like Java for decades.

      I don’t know how you came up with your rust <-> ai theory, that hasn’t been my experience at all.
