Magical pills do not exist. Better start pushing old fuckers incapable of learning out of the project (yeah, I don't like this kind of treatment of Rust just because it is not C either)
Old fuckers exist to protect young fuckers from throwing out the baby with the bath water.
I'm referring to the ageism implied in the statement, I don't care about C vs Rust any more than I care about vi vs emacs or KDE vs Gnome.
Old fuckers have experience, they have seen many next big things come and go, that's why they seem slow to adopt new stuff. Of course this annoys new fuckers a lot, as they want to play with their new shiny toys now.
Patience is a virtue, young grasshopper.
Ooh, so "get out with this Rust, I ain't gonna think about when writing my code" is protecting a baby now?
