That is a very rude dismissal, followed by a bad faith implication of the author's motivations. You can do better.
I got something worthwhile out of it. I'm learning Rust and, like the author of the blog post, tend to value safety (simplicity hopefully being a contributor to that) over that last bit of performance. I was actually looking over the source of some of the libraries I'm considering using, am concerned about some things I found, didn't know about ureq, now I do, and I think it's going to fit my needs.
You broke the site guidelines badly and repeatedly in this thread, for example in your aggressive comments to the article author, and in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39139646 which was really totally unacceptable.
This is not cool.
You're a good contributor, and I appreciate that you don't do this all the time, but we've also had to warn you multiple times about this kind of thing in the past. If you'd please review https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and stick to the rules when posting here, we'd appreciate it.
