Can’t escape AI slop projects from meat proxies man. Every single open source project smells like Claude Code recently. Sad times.

    Rust really has a reputation. Not only it is associated with slop and snobbery (slobbery?), but also with efforts to steal skill and capability from the community by “rewrite it in Rust”-ing FOSS projects into projects with corporate-friendly licenses that enable wholesale project theft and enshittification.

      Can you explain this? Rust is a programming language, so what do “corporate-friendly licenses” have to do with what programming language somebody is using?

        This is probably a reference to (canonical?) Rewriting gnu coreutils in rust and changing the license from GPL to MIT
