Exactly what is your definition of "initiated mostly by" and why do you promote it as objective? It sure seems to me that Rust detractors see the word "Rust" and immediately spawn a flame war. You, of course, also see

Fjall is an LSM-based key-value store written in Rust. It is pretty similar to RocksDB. I do wish to note also that Marvin's blog posts are very informative and a great read. I would highly suggest reading them if you are at all intere

I regularly enable YouTube subtitles. Almost always, they are a 100% verbatim transcription, excluding errors from auto-transcription. I am not annoyed in the slightest, and in fact I very much prefer that they are verbatim. If you are too

Software engineering is not just about building new things. I'd propose that by far the majority of the time of software engineers is spent on maintenance, bug fixing, minor incremental improvements, etc. Almost all software is either

Didn't the RIAA completely ruin their reputation (along with the other AAs) by doing that? Now it seems like most people just equate them with a huge pile of lawyers in suits who care not about art.

How would I respond at my job if someone openly antagonized my project(s) and completely refused to work with me? Probably complain to management.

Where is an example of this "false advertising"?

I have a hard time believing that you wouldn't be annoyed if some almost completely unrelated maintainer hard NACKs your patch and every suggestion you offer just because they hold a grudge against the language you used.

They list their email as: > For more information or to contact us open a PR or email us at nyxpsi@skill-issue.dev This sounds to me like a troll. In any case, I don't think blatantly advertising your lack of expertise in networking
