You have an awful low bar for what is considered chiding, damn

Then again, your very username implies an indulgence in viewing technology through the lens of fandoms which is... weird

I read the comment that they were referring to and it wasn't even constructive conversation in the thread.

It was basically a complete derail to backdoor in a conversation about why they think everything should be in Rust.

OpenBSD still uses CVS, C and Make because that's what works for them. They will continue to keep using C, Make and CVS but that enables them to be productive with the contributors that they have. Moving things to other languages will not increase their productivity. That's the biggest thing that the largely-fanatical Rust evangelists completely fail to understand.
