the thing is, rust can have really fast compile times, but the pervasive use of macros and build scripts obscures that fact. impure proc macros and build scripts are the free parking of the rust ecosystem: benefiting the few at the cost of many
at this point, i think i prefer `go generate` over build dot rs scripts. the latter are too annoying to parallelize and i think codegen is rare enough that being able to run it as an explicit step is worth it for faster/more reliable IDEs

What message does it send, especially to women, that the democrats will pull out all the stops to rally around a disgraced fucking rapist rather than let a socialist win a single mayoral election? I’m so tired of this shit dude
