THE 70s MUST HAVE BEEN A WILD TIME TO BE ALIVE, right?I often daydream about the lives of people who picked up C just at this perfect time, right at the star...
Unfortunately. But it feels and looks like JS, they then realized they needed typing, so they slapped Python typehints on top, but made them essentially optional, but still enforce strict typing. Then they realized that using installed libraries was too convenient, so they shit on the worst dependency system I’ve ever seen.
At least I can manage Pythons packages without pip (eg. with pacman) and it doesn’t need to compile ~500 packages for a program as complicated as hello world. I can probably compile the kernel faster than most of the small shit rust programs I need on my server.
You can manage Python packages? When I try to pip install -r requirements.txt, it fails because I’m on Python 3.12 instead of 3.11, except it doesn’t tell me that’s why so I spend the next hour debugging that only to later find out that I also installed the packages globally instead of in a venv and now I need to uninstall them to unfuck my other environments.

Wait, you’re bringing up Python and saying Rust has the worst dependency system you’ve ever seen?
