On the other hand - I feel like it could be a gateway to something m

You mean like marijuana and violent video games?

You don't lose info as long as the offset is marked correctly

Logging in local time is fine as long as the offset is marked. Everything else I agree with you though

Exactly this. Anyhow makes error handling in rust actually a joy. It's only something you need to consider if you're writing a library for others to use, and in that case, it's good that rust forces you to be very very explicit

That syntax looks atrocious

Are you using an IDE like rustrover? Rust is by far the easiest language I've worked with. It makes it so the only way to write code is the right way

I have no idea where this propaganda that is wasn't so hard being a feudal peasant came from but it's just laughable

I read that

You could also frame it as liberals being on the side of religious freedom, though, which might include this shit

No one is trying to take anyone's freedom. But that freedom includes participating in coercive, sexist, patriarchal practices designed around oppression, which is all that religion is. It doesn't make it a feel good or wholesome story. Religion is inherently bigoted because it enforces obedience through manipulation

In any case, it’s sort of like, people decrying christianity at large as being shitty when realistically they just mean like, evangelicals, or catholics, or mormons, or jehovah’s witnesses, or maybe in some odd cases, quakers and mennonites

No, ALL christianity is shitty. It's inherently shitty because its entire purpose is to subjugate through threat of eternal damnation (let alone literal threats and violence). There is literally no other purpose. And this isn't specific to christianity. It's inherent to all religions

If your argument is that dresses are the same level of subjugation as hijabs, you're either trolling or are completely ignorant. It's not really even comparable in this day. There is basically no pressure for women to only wear dresses anymore. And it's also not something that's imposed by a religious rule. It was more of a general patriarchal society issue, which we also have issues with.

They're basically exactly the same. Someone being generous about something that shouldn't have been an issue in the first place.

No one's talking about removing choice. But not all choices are equally valid. And many choices are coerced due to religious patriarchal structures which are not actually true choices
