Interview with Senior Rust Developer in 2023 (Parody) [video]

[laxd]

"There's currently 5 games written in rust. ... And 50 game engines".

That sounds like the open source game ecosystem in general. Maybe multiply by n.

[MuffinFlavored]

Think of the man hours "wasted" (poor word to describe the situation but...) spent on splitting hairs on libc, compilers, packager managers, driver quirks, kernels (BSD vs Linux), etc.

Their "Interview with an Agile Coach" [0] parody video is one of the best I've seen. Take a look if you enjoyed this one!

I've watched practically all his videos. He's even funnier than Krazam, the guy clearly does thorough research for his jokes. Also laughed at names like "Azuros Cloudapi, Conservative Tech Officer (CTO)", and the inter-video continuity (e.g. Interviews with Junior JS Developer, Senior JS Developer, NFT Enthusiast, and NFT Non-Enthusiast).

[WJW]

His other videos are fantastic too. I really enjoyed the vim one.

[athorax]

Was this video written in Rust? If not, why should I care?

[sapiogram]

It's actually better when things aren't written in Rust, because then you have something to evangelize!

OMG, it's like an SNL skit. It makes a point, then, just keeps going. Now, you're laughing at the fact that it's still going. Then, you're confused on why it's still going. Yet, you're still laughing with (at?) it.

"Well, come back after your learn haskell" had me dying.

[giancarlostoro]

I wonder if he's just reading HN comments out of context. That would really be how I'd parody any language. Just all the die-hard defenses, out of context.

[two_handfuls]

Loved it. My favorite part is the ding in the middle - "oh that's just my code finished compiling!"

Cannot believe I watched this until the very end… such an amazing, funny video. On the real, TIL that Python just introduced the case/switch statement. Thank goodness

[hpb42]

> TIL that Python just introduced the case/switch statement.

"took 15 years for that"

I laughed out loud there. I haven't seen Python's switch/case before, it is very sweet and powerful.[0] TIL as well :)

I laughed out loud and had to stop and screenshot the "Rewrite everything in Rust" (Bootcamp Graduate) hardback book.

Humor is hard. He’s laugh-out-loud funny all the way through.

"Harrison Ford once said" .. hillarious

Choose the right job for the tool!

Like a Json Bourne flick.
