I don’t know how are universes split but I’m in the wrong one for sure!

300Gb compile caches, 5 minute compilation, nix flakes with layer and careful adjustments for different arch and deployments, cargo slowing builds by 5 minutes every time because it insist on downloading full repo every time (and occasionally failing). API libraries maintained by some completely anonymous guy or lad from eastern country.

On top of it the bugs don’t get away. If your problem IS memory safety, then sure - chomp away. But I’ve seen u64 truncated to u32 because someone decided to thread it through JSON serialization and macro soup.

Every bear looks like a puppy when it’s a cub.
