  • I wish implicit returns could be turned into an error in the configs of a project. It was impopular at the time and probably still is outside of Rust, it permeated through every control structure because of how the language is designed, but the worst part is how unnecessary it was

    It would’ve cost nothing not to do it

    It would’ve made no one upset

    Now Rust is the only language to do what it does - and it has this shit in it

  • There’s no definite conclusion on whether consuming and distributing lolicon content could lead some individuals to seek out or create explicit content involving real children

    If they rule that out entirely through the scientific method one day, then I’ll join your side

    Weebs usually respond to that “Well that’s like saying video games cause violence!” so I’ll jump ahead of you, that would be like saying we should forbid Lolicon videogames in a society that already has lolicon books, lolicon movies, lolicon cartoons and where history classes mostly cover instances of countries showing lolicon to each other. That’s not the situation we’re in, and even if it was, it’s still not necessarily comparable. Sexual urges have properties that violence doesn’t share.
