alt Hacker News> It seems Rust people just can’t take a little criticism, even when it comes from a clearly trolling language
I think this is a case of people who can dish it out but can't take it. As far as I'm concerned if you troll someone you should expect to get trolled back.
Might get downvoted but was thinking this exact thing when reading this debate. Rustations have this very bad habit (IMO) of pushing the "my language is better than yours" to an extreme that I haven't seen elsewhere (but I don't frequent a huge number of language circles so...). Yet when it is done to them they get all upset about it.
