  • I’m surprised no one has mentioned golang. We have the usual dichotomy of java and rust but there’s a very very good option for those who are worried about rust adoption.

    I vastly prefer writing rust code but go on its own gets you very very similar performance at the cost of developer experience. I think sum types are the #1 requested feature so once that comes I’ll be a much happier boy.



  • I hear what you are saying but I wouldn’t even say that line about if it were women it’d be a national crisis. Time has shown again and again that society will gladly throw away a group of people without needing to devalue your words with a statement like that.

    Anyway there’s a lot of things to discuss around this.

    We can dive into the societal role of men with being encouraged to bottle up because “grown men don’t cry” and toxic masculinity.

    We can talk about rates of gun ownership between genders that is a big factor in suicide risk.

    We can unpack the issue with people not having the money for mental health resources. Which can be solved through general wage increases or through the state.

    The point is to say that instead of using a crisis to step another group of people we should be approaching these things from a point of intersectionality.

    Edit: Just to be on topic I am completely for restrictions on guns as a easier means to dealing with shootings.

    The crazy people shouting “dont take my guns” while also touting the line of “it’s a mental health isssue” without being open to addressing that problem gets me so worked up.
