i wonder if the same thing holds true for more mainstream languages like c, c++, java, python, javascript, php etc? even though rust is moving towards mainstream it’s still fairly niche and fairly young
all the hype around rust with how groundbreaking it is creates fertile ground for misinformation

unbelievably useless for something that technically works. XD
the only way it doesn’t instantly die is if your opponent happens to have at least one artifact with the exact same mana value as your number of mountains.
though, maybe, if people use free artifacts, it could work in commander

i mean, already the standard library has a lot of functions duplicated just for the sake of being generic over mutability, so yeah, that makes sense

i mean, very many disagreements stem from misunderstandings, but yeah, assuming that it must be the case and that it’s the other party that misunderstood is very annoying!

Isn’t this the founding principle of industrialism (and capitalism)? ”Whenever possible, replace things with things that are worse, but a lot cheaper”
Most things that are mass-produced are worse than their hand-made counterparts, but being cheaper makes them replaceable when they inevitably break

i don’t get why presidential pardon exists at all?? is it a leftover from monarchies that the US was inspired by since it didn’t have (many) other democracies to look at for inspiration?
