    sigh ai is a tool; next we'll have people saying that they shifted their entire worlds because they didn't like the language a program was built in... o wait, we already have that with unnecessary rust rewrites... bad example, but the idea holds.

    And no, I don't have a problem with rust, or rewriting a program in rust in an attempt to make it more memory safe (for some version of "more memory safe" - reading a recent article linked on HN about ways that rust can still be quite unsafe has put that in perspective for me). I just don't see the point in wholesale rewrites because someone has an opinion you don't like.

    Opinions are like assholes: everyone has one, and most of them stink. A broken clock is still right twice a day, etc.

      AI is a fascist tool and yes everyone has an opinion and some stink, like yours. Also the fact that you made this about rewrites in Rust which is not mentioned and not topical at all, considering no code was rewritten for this migration, makes me question if you actually understood the text.
