Idiomatic Rust code is just as cavalier regarding NPEs as Java or Python code. Because the language starts to look really gross when you make your code panic-safe. So you have an `expect` here, an `unwrap` there, and now you're going to have the exact same runtime issues as the more expressive managed languages. No Rust programmer thinks their `expect` will panic, just like no Java programmer expects something will be null. Rust does not force you to "exhaustively match".
TIL skepticism of US war propaganda ≈ belief in "democrats drinking infant blood in the basement of a pizza parlor". No, I think you've perfectly illustrated the problem, thanks.
Well, no, the prudent choice for someone concerned with "safety" in this context is any high-level memory managed (GC) language. It's any boring language that has no `unsafe` at all. What you're actually saying is "I'm willing to sacrifice safety for performance," as invariably the objection to a high-level GC language by Rustaceans is that it lacks the necessary lolspeed.
It sounds like you're saying that anybody who diverges from your status quo opinions is some sort of mental terrorist. Excuse me, "stochastic terrorist."
Any high performer who could resist the temptation to send a detailed narrative of their latest significant poop, with photos, along with a curt resignation, is a stronger person than me. It really seems like he's asking for it.
Yea, where's the "outrage"? Need more outrage. I mean, by golly, I have these *kiddos* who need their dad 24/7! What's with these young people who want to go into the office?

False. I grew up poor and couldn't afford school so I self-taught programming in HS to be able to land software jobs. I started work immediately and never considered school. Having grown up in a poor and abusive household, I strongly relate to OP: When all of your rewards come from one place (writing code), when one thing lifted you out of poverty, it's near impossible to focus on anything else for long. Like, what's the point in pursuing hobbies when people will just treat you like shit there. Programming (professionally) is the sole activity where people treat me like a human being: Money is a powerful motivator for them or something.
