that's unfortunate because even as a ludite i generate some code from LLMs to try things out before working on the application code. But doesn't mean that I copy AI generated code into my application.

yo the people railing against this must consider themselves geniuses. It's like people have a hateboner for rust.
Have you considered maybe that this was expected regardless of what language you do it in? It's a rewrite and that's definitely going to miss several decades of changes that have made the normal version good.
You have to measure the time it takes for the rust version to get to the same level as the non-rust counterpart.
Consider also you actually can't switch off your brain because of memory guarantees. You have to work on other important things too.
Also keep a count of CVEs that the rust version generated and decide if the current port is better or a failure.
if business logic assumes a set of preconditions before a particular piece of code that the language/runtime/os satisfies.. then it's an immediate assert. Any kind of IO, memory creation and OS operations fall into this carefory.
However if the business logic assumes something in its own domain and that assumption does not hold then its better to handle that instead of crashing. Ex. being you expect a queue to have at least one element in some pipeline and if it is empty then return saying nothing to be done.
Edit: don't assert/crash if your application is single process multithreaded unless you want your friend from accounting asking you why their stock ticker crashed just when they clicked a button in the coffee shop module of your app. Use some thread exit mechanism.
I hope you understand being different is not frowned upon.. but rather the constant irritation of people wanting to prove something all the time. Like I get it, people want to be different.. but when you want to communicate ideas you gotta find a common ground so talking is at least pleasant.
I don't want to go through hoops to understand what you're trying to say! having a good conversation is already hard with all the mindless rage bait.
Then why are you expecting me to be any better if you don't want to stop yourself here and begin the introspection?
Somehow you want people to read your arguments and change their opinion but when people ask you to do the same you just declare you are stupid and refuse to do the very thing that you expect others to do?
being kind is actually not political. By definition if someone hates people for anything other than what they do or say.. then its the person who creates the political cloud.
