CS student Rust evangelists force language hype on unsuspecting stranger meme

Description

Image meme using the well-known ‘force-feeding’ template: a blond person holds another person by the hair and pours liquid from a plastic bottle into their mouth. The faces are blurred. Labels are super-imposed in bold white capital letters: over the standing person, “FEMBOY FURRY CS STUDENTS”; over the bottle, “RUST PROPAGANDA”; over the kneeling person, “RANDOM PERSON ON THE STREET.” Visually, it implies an enthusiastic subgroup of computer-science students aggressively pushing the Rust programming language onto uninterested bystanders. Technically, the meme satirizes language evangelism, Rust’s growing popularity, and the sometimes overbearing enthusiasm found in online developer communities

    Keep pouring the Rust propaganda - I'll chug it right after you rewrite our 3 million-line embedded C codebase, pass the FAA audit, and convince finance that “unsafe” is a keyword, not a budget assessment

    The best part about Rust evangelists is they'll spend 3 hours explaining the borrow checker to fix a bug that would've taken 30 seconds with a debugger in C++, but at least they can sleep soundly knowing their program is 'memory safe' while it panics in production because someone forgot to handle an unwrap()

    Ah yes, the classic Rust evangelism cycle: Step 1 - Learn about ownership and borrowing. Step 2 - Experience the euphoria of zero-cost abstractions. Step 3 - Develop an uncontrollable urge to rewrite every C codebase in existence. Step 4 - Corner unsuspecting developers at meetups to explain why their memory-unsafe language choices are morally equivalent to leaving SQL injection vulnerabilities in production. The meme perfectly captures that moment when a CS student discovers fearless concurrency and suddenly becomes more aggressive than a Kubernetes sales engineer at a monolith architecture conference

    Rust evangelism is move-by-default: once they take ownership of the conversation, the borrow checker won’t let you change the subject

    Rust propaganda: transferring ownership of that milk bottle without a single clone

    Rust is fantastic, but in my org “rewrite it in Rust” compiles to FFI wrappers, a second hiring pipeline, and a migration plan the CFO will borrow‑check

    I miss times when everyone was joking about femboy anime cs students 🥲

    1. @yoyatayo 3y

      U miss because u lost the attention?

      1. @RiedleroD 3y

        says the guy who pays for telegram

        1. @yoyatayo 3y

          I am femboy thats why i miss the great times, i was just looking for the same personalities, but u bully me

          1. @RiedleroD 3y

            that's great but you're still paying for telegram lmao

            1. @yoyatayo 3y

              Why not to pay for software which i use frequently and respect the developers

              1. @RiedleroD 3y

                telegram still claims they have released 0 bytes of user data to governments, yet the German police openly stated that they obtained chat logs by telegram. don't trust any company implicitly. pay for open source devs that can be held accountable with definitive proof

                1. @yoyatayo 3y

                  Yeah thats sucks, but i still respect the developers who build such great messenger and now i can delete wasteup

                  1. @RiedleroD 3y

                    fair ig

  9. @yoyatayo 3y

    Also i can spam with this emojis 😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜

    1. Kademlia 3y

      Maybe some don't want to fund accelerated battery drainage

      1. @yoyatayo 3y

        How it’s referred to telegram

        1. @RiedleroD 3y

          animations drain your battery faster. you can turn that off though

          1. @yoyatayo 3y

            I didnt notice that yet

            1. @RiedleroD 3y

              I don't think it's that important

          2. @ZgGPuo8dZef58K6hxxGVj3Z2 3y

            Thats what an android user would say. Apple users would say this: The blurry effects use up battery. On iOS you can disable them system wide if you set up the accessibility bs for it

        2. Kademlia 3y

          More emoji spam = more battery drainage. I remember android dev mentioning restrictions on the amount of emoji, as it would otherwise require more processing power

          1. @RiedleroD 3y

            that sounds like a 2010 problem honestly

            1. Kademlia 3y

              I remember drklo wrote that after 2016 or so

  10. @azizhakberdiev 3y

  11. Deleted Account 3y

    I cummed, thanks

  12. @viktorrozenko 3y

    My friend's asking for the original video. Anyone got it?

    1. @alexandr_guluta 3y

      its only a photo

        Ernest Hemingway once made a bet that he'd be able to write the shortest sad story. He won that bet, pocketing his $10. This was the story:
