I'm so sick of top comments like this on orange site - Ok, Rust is great, Ok, a lot of C++ proposals are overly complicated and fail in ways worth talking about - but "just use rust" is not relevant. "This bridge needs repairs" "Just use that other bridge" - how is that helpful?

I knew Crimewave (1985) had a disastrous production, but I never knew it this insane: youtube.com/watch?v=CKSNDFzV… - how could Gilliam fail to make Don Quixote but Raimi was able to actually release this? Raimi had an insane level of youthful tenancity to see this all the way through
