Clem talks about that in the comments. What are some no hassle, Debian based, rustless distros as alternative to Mint?

      Ah yes a programming language determines the mental state and acuity of the person using it. This might be the dumbest thing I’ve ever read in my entire life. Are you sure you aren’t the one we need to test with such ludicrous ideas?

        Not what I meant. The Rust language appeals a particular type of neuro type especially. And with that neurotype, there comes some specific design behaviours.

          There’s a “neurotype”… associated with liking a programming language? Are you some kind of nazi or something?

            As for Nazi, quite the opposite. If I were one, I would insensitively had just spelled it out and have people yell. This is observation and also spoken about by one in the community who wrote the book I mention in another response.

            Look up Steve Klabnik and his book The Rust Programming Language. He goes into details about who the language appeals to and why, and he is not wrong.

              Ah yes the programmer who knows lots about psychology with his PhD or PsyD wrote a book about something that makes no sense in this context (the use of the word neurotype unless that’s your doing) must surely know what he’s talking about. As everyone knows if you write a book then it’s true. Seems like you’re just using the book as a convenient way to prop up your bias and stereotypes. Truly I suggest some introspection on the things you’re saying. I’ll bet you have some image of what I look like in your mind and it’d probably be absolutely shattered were you to know what I do look like. Maybe go and actually meet some people who happen to like rust and realize that not everybody whose likes one programming language or another makes it their whole personality. This is like saying someone who prefers using hammers and nails over screws and screwdrivers has a different neurotype. Genuinely weird commentary from you.
