This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Rust is great, and I truly mean that. But saying you can't get race conditions in Rust is just not true.

And also, not everything is going to be written in Rust. When the company you're working for needs a web application quickly, that's better done in other languages.

And also also, Spring has a lot of niceties when it comes to concurrency that make this much less of a point.

You can't get data races at least, and in practice it's very difficult to get actual race conditions.
