I think feminism is a perfectly appropriate word choice for the movement. The focus is on the fact that women are discriminated against, and that is a very specific scope of problems that need to be addressed. Calling it egalitarianism kinda loses the point and draws focus away from the actual problem. I.e. the movement is about solving problems, not about a hypothetical utopic end state. You could argue about what that utopia should look like forever, but the movement has already identified concrete issues that need to be addressed.

Anyone who nitpicks the word choice like in the comic is just not sympathetic to the issue and causing a distraction.

The “you don’t even celebrate” felt pretty snarky to me. Like it even matters whether or not you celebrate the same holidays.

The snark is really not warranted. If you can’t survive for a single holiday by yourself, you need to get your shit together.

Flash is actually coming back to life via WebAssembly of all things.

Please explain how my comment implied that in any way.

EDIT: So if I’m understanding you right, you’re saying that you believe (even if only for the sake of argument) that other people are a “part of you” in such a way that you can’t know things about them that they already know about themselves.

If so, I don’t think that really changes the ethical problem. So what if you believe that you’d only be harming “yourself”? You still can’t prove this, and so acting on that belief to do harm to others without guilt would be unjustified.

I mean, that’s easy to disprove because I can tell you plenty of things you don’t know about me.

I disagree. You are assuming that everyone who harms someone else does not care whether they are conscious or not, but there are certainly people who reconsider their actions when given the opportunity to reflect about their victim’s life. It’s called empathy.

Did you read the post? It ends with several critiques of Rust.

And that makes it OK?

It’s a dangerous belief from an ethical standpoint. You could use it to justify horrible acts against others without any proof about their sentience.

No the dollar membership would be too expensive.

It’s such a weird poster. You can tell they photoshopped two separate photos of the actors together.

I guess I see what you mean if we want to get very technical about what a syntax extension is. But I think for the purpose of this discussion, it’s reasonable to think of macro_rules! as a part of the Rust language. Practically speaking, it is syntax provided by the language team, not just users of the language who are free to extend the syntax by using macro_rules! to do so.

Enums are the best part of the Rust language IMO, so I’m not sure how you can view them as ugly. Having the choice to destructure something is fantastic. You generally aren’t required to destructure every return value. Make sure you’re using the ? operator as much as possible. If destructuring is getting in your way, it sounds like the code is not very idiomatic.

I can’t really comment on your issue with nested if and match. Too much nesting is bad in any language; try extracting more functions and let bindings to make it more readable.

You can enable a clippy lint to deny .unwrap() if you’re worried about it.

Sorry, I love Rust but I can’t really agree with you here. They only showed a macro_rules! definition, which is definitely rust syntax. Lifetime annotations are relatively common.

I will concede that loop labels are incredibly rare though.

The part where this connects to the bible and the afterlife is that Jesus attempted to give a compassionate moral framework to people who weren’t being taught that by any one at all. He’s the Louis Pasteur of the soul and you’re speaking as if the knowledge of bacteria was always self evident to anyone who cared to think about it for a minute.

If your point is that Jesus taught good morals to people, then I agree, assuming you can even trust that those stories from the Bible are true. Although I think it’s wrong to assume Jesus was the first person to teach a similar moral framework. The Golden Rule existed and was taught broadly long before Jesus ever lived.

But I believe the point you are arguing is stronger than that. From your first comment, it sounded like your point is that believing in an afterlife is critical to discovering morality, and that is a teaching of the Bible (and Jesus?) which I disagree with.

The Golden Rule is a wonderful thing IMO, at least as a principle to be used with judgement. But the religious baggage can be shed without losing the value of that moral principle; I don’t need to believe in Christianity or an afterlife to agree with the Golden Rule.

FWIW I tried the Helix mode in Zed, and it was missing lots of Helix bindings that I rely on.
