I think we can all agree that whenever Rust comes up there's a high amount of "I like to program in C/C++ and don't plan to change, thankyouverymuch"-style comments. Was there a similar backlash against the rise of Java, Swift, Kotlin, or TypeScript? Or is this somehow a unique case? Nothing is new under the sun and all that, but I can't remember similarly animated discourse before.
