Sod's law someone finally posts this on the day I decide to make a post. I promise I did check the board yesterday when there wasn't an update! Thanks for the explanation though.

I'm learning Rust at the moment and I too think I have some reservations with its syntax. Most of these reservations come from my strong preference for functional programming over OOP.
I am unsure if I like method-syntax period, even if it isn't inherently OO. Chaining just makes me feel uncomfortable in a way piping doesn't.
Also it seems idiomatic for values of enumerated types to be written Type::Enum, which seems ugly and unnecessary.
What'd you make of this article?: https://matklad.github.io/2023/01/26/rusts-ugly-syntax.html

However, I think you just have to accept that in the body politic there are many people (a majority in all likelihood) who have a say in their democracies but don't concern themselves with situations such as Israel-Palestine.
Lewis has the attention of these people, and he feels he's doing the right thing by bringing attention to the plight of innocent civilians in the region. If his post has inspired at least one person to be more aware and sympathetic to the human suffering, then hasn't it been worth the effort?
James Vowles came closest to convincing me that a new team could really harm the back-half of the grid. I'm still in favour of the Andretti bid but I think teams like Williams should still be permitted more spending on infrastructure to bridge the gap between them and the bigger teams.
Instructions unclear. Hamilton five place grid penalty for having gay friends.
I do very much get the impression Lance is pressured by his Dad to keep racing. I can't imagine that Lance is being compromised for Nando though. Lawrence's dream has always been for his son to be WDC, so I imagine Lance's car is on-parity with Nando's.
I can't imagine he gets paid nothing. I've always presumed he gets a nominal salary. Regardless, Lance is going to always be unfathomably wealthy unless his Dad cuts him off completely, which I presume wouldn't happen. Even if he was cut off, Lance now has the experience and the contacts to make a large amount of money independent of his Dad.
I'd be more willing to extend sympathy and understanding to Lance, if we'd ever seen any of that from him to his fellow professionals. How'd he appreciate his teammates humanity when he fucked-over his teammates in Formula 3? Where was his sympathy when he cost Ocon his seat? The seat he earned on-merit thanks to his family selling their home to fund his career?
I mean, play stupid games win stupid prizes? If you're not adult enough to be able to express your frustration in a way that doesn't harm those around you, you open yourself up to accusations of being a baby.
No, no, don't you understand? His Dad bought the team. He owns all that equipment that those hard-working individuals who don't get to see their families produced. Hell, he owns those individuals. They don't get to be upset if he wants to throw his toys. They don't get to be upset if he physically abuses them. They wouldn't even have a job if it weren't for him.
