I find it interesting that every single piece of software that was ever written in Rust always mentions that very proudly in its title. It's not something I see often with other programming languages (most software is just software and doesn't necessarily advertise the language it was built with). I do not know anything about Rust, so I'm just curious, does this confer a kind of underlying trustworthiness or quality to the application?

I find it interesting that every single post which has "written in Rust" also has someone in the comments asking why every single Rust project advertises it was written in Rust.

It's fascinating to me that every post which has "written in Rust" includes a comment pointing out the fact that someone in the comments always asks why every single Rust project advertises it was written in Rust.

(term simplification, halt loop) It’s fascinating that a forum full of technical people make comments that lampoon the meta commentary by making an nth-order meta comment.

Technical people have fun too. I think.

This statement relies on self-reported inner state. It is inherently unreliable. ;)
