I don't understand why people criticize this post. When you run a homepage or a blog, it's unavoidable to write script style code. Even if the quality is a bit low, that's the limit within a tutorial. Because if you go into actual design, things like boundaries, policies, error handling, and so on require a lot of prior knowledge. So when certain knowledge is needed, you can only post something as a simple runnable script.
For example, if I were building real software, I would design everything from policy to error logging policies and so on. But when writing a blog post, it's just simplified into a short runnable script.
At least Medium's algorithm shows it to users within Medium. A personal homepage doesn't get picked up well by SEO, and unless it becomes famous, you can't see any comments from people. Just like my homepage(makonea.com) that no one visits
That seems pretty harsh. How do new frontend frameworks, GPU shaders or another article about how great Rust is (which it is) help fight climate change or child starvation?
They just took undefined behaviour and called it unsafe. Theyve not really solved anything. Even their own std lib has security bugs in unsafe code.
And their only ever retort is "there are thousands of these bugs a day in c code"... Let's wait until rust gets used seriously in the systems and embedded space first, no point comparing c to minnows like rust when it comes to total cves.

2. The content is lower quality.
Please stop posting.
It's using code blocks that have language highlighting, and the appropriate whitespacing.
What's the problem?
