    Ah yes, rust. The language that somehow manages to manages to as verbose as possible, with as much jargonized shorthand that a computer could handle.

      Exactly, I don’t understand why languages have decided that every keyword needs to be as randomly minified as possible. fn, def, rune(ok that’s not minified, just a dumb name), fmt, std. Many of these things aren’t new, but programmers recognize descriptive variable names are important, the same should be true for keywords.
