Writing comments about pointer ownership

Your Rust stats are irrelevant. You're literally the creator of Rust.

Outside of you, the majority of "users" of Rust are script-kiddies who think it's "cool" (like Haskell cool) and will likely never write any native application of any significance using it (or any low-level language for that matter).

Given that you seem to think that pcwalton is the creator of Rust, I'm guessing that your professed knowledge of the demographics of the Rust community is also entirely fantastical. Would you like to cite a source for your ad-hominem throwaway comments?

I think rust has its merits, don't get me wrong. I just think it has a large cargo cult following of inexperienced script kids who have never used it for anything other than pretending to know what they're taking about.
