I hate the way this article uses the word "coder" instead of "programmer". It's an all too common trend. It is a diminuitive word which trivializes programming.

same with ‘tech bro’. It used to mean a specific (negative) type of tech worker, now it’s a catch all term for anyone in tech

Well I feel the same way now that programmers use Product Developer or Designer as a title. It's not like you can copy some lines of code from Stack Overflow and then you have a new Bluetooth speaker.

I've built an API and basic video game in it so far, building a boot loader for a custom OS now; it's alright but there's some bad design choices;

For example hidden types not listed in the imports etc; would be better if that was more explicit.

Also the docs for most of crates I've been using has been really terrible.

You program in Rust by opening it and then closing it because it won't let you program anything.

This is a joke about its safety features.

Their description of memory issues (tramples, uninitialized reads, leaks) is awful, but does anyone have any medium term experience beyond initially learning it? Am considering it for future work projects.
