What's the wrong with that?
Here are my recommendations.
First, the community can be very sensitive to the perceived tone of your notes. For example, I would imagine that even
"Most of them were probably made by the Rust people"
could rub some the wrong way and they might down vote you just on the tone, even if they agreed with the larger points in your message.
Second, I think there is no/little risk in creating initial posts. While they can be flagged, I am not sure you can accumulate down votes. If you find interesting things (to tech/startup types of people) then initial posts might be a "less risky" way to get started. Take that with a grain of salt though as I have only ever commented.
Third, there are a number of "lighting rod" issues for this community that one side will tend to upvote and the other down vote based on principle. I would tend to shy away from heated topics with clearly defined "sides" particularly anything political.
Fourth, there are some issues that "most" of the community supports and questioning those topics/beliefs can (as you probably have seen) result in large point dings. Again, it really does not matter if you are making a sound argument against one of these communal treasures.
Some people who love and support an issue are likely to downvote to show that they don't "agree" with you perspective, not that what you said was offensive and if you are challenging an issue that the majority of the community supports, you are likely to see big point loss.
Good luck, read the Guidelines posted below and welcome to the community.
someone else> "Try to focus on the maths and avoid looking at code examples."
you > "Straight out dictatorship."
This is going to get downvoted here every time. The original post suggests attempting something and you have responded asserting that is dictatorship. Perhaps you have come here from other forums where overstating your case is the norm, but that is not needed or wanted here.
If you felt like a focus on math rather than code is wrong you could have responed with something like
"I feel the focus on math rather than code is wrong. I personally learn faster via code experimentation than attempting to read an understand dense math."
Note, I am speaking for myself above as I personally do learn faster via code experimentation (and I have a degree in mathematics). You might think about how you could have elaborated on your position without attacking the other party :-)
“Nuh uh, you can definitely use a car as a boat”.
Yes, you’re right, you can live in the stack and use RAII for C++. But there’s no enforcement flag or a RAII-ONLY check at compile. So it’s moot what you’re saying.
