>It's not fair to assume the author didn't know how to implement generics before this project

Yeah... what they ended up implementing is not generics. So good thing the LLM doesn't read link/comments too or will've probably wrote an actual roast.

>It's also not fair to assume the project won't gain traction

Very fair to assume this. Referencing Rust/Zig disregarding the thousands other now abandoned ones is survivorship bias. Most small hobby projects remain small. But, besides joking about it, "built [something] nobody will use", if is in their free time, and enjoy it, does it matter? Is there a need for all hobby projects to have a goal of making it big?

>This just goes a little too far for my tastes.

But the "Please star my repo so I can get a job" is fine?
