1. Figuring out and loving functional programming in JS/Node.js, coming from a Java/OO background

2. Hating working on a Java/Angular/OO project after 5 years of FP

I may get downvoted for this, but why are there so many posts ending with "in Rust"? Surely the content should be interesting enough to stand on it's own, no matter the language

Then again, why shouldn't it be ending with "in Rust" (or "in Nim" or "in Go", etc)?

After all, HN has a focus on technology and programming. So it seems somewhat natural that readers here will be interested in the technology and programming language of a project.

For frameworks, the language is a main deciding factor for people, so it makes sense to include it in the title. And Rust seems to popular in HN, so it makes sense it often ends up on the frontpage.
