“Modern” more usually means some new JavaScript thing. In JS land, they consider anything that hasn’t had a commit on main branch in over 3 days to be a dead old project in need of being replaced with something new and “modern” that is up to date with the latest trends and breaking changes from the previous 24 hours of their world.

Usually the hyperbolic superlative for Rust projects is “blazing fast”. Of course, any kind of benchmarks or comparisons with other implementations are completely optional. It is simply enough to “cargo init” and start hammering out code. You don’t even need to consider the characteristics of the algorithms you choose to use! If it’s Rust, it’s “blazing fast”.

Where's that meme of the guy painting demons then laying down on the floor in fear when you need it.

Your most starred repo is inferior to a shell one-liner lol. Talk about pot calling the kettle black. Just use the system dict, shuf, grep, and head.

It’s bad form to badmouth someone’s earnest work for sure. I wouldn’t do it normally since I think it’s nice that you actually did something. But if you’re going to sit in a glass house and throw stones you should expect some back.

Fortunately, my house is an underground burrow so I can throw stones with impunity. As ugly as it is to do.

Dig a little deeper in the repos and you may eventually find that this is exactly what that started as :^)

> badmouth someone’s earnest work for sure

Was speaking generally. Not meant at OP. I think it’s awesome that they are making a Minecraft server in Rust.

> Talk about pot calling the kettle black

Of course! Anything else would be bad form.

> my house is an underground burrow so I can throw stones with impunity

Sneaky, sneaky ;)

Haha fair play if you’re in the “we’re all clowns here” camp.

How do you throw stones out of an underground burrow?

[renewiltord]

With your arms, usually, but I’ve known people who use catapults.

Throwing a rock straight up through a vertical shaft? Checks out.
