The annotated tl;dr is: Chris doesn't want to learn how hardware works, they don't want to learn how to write optimal software, they don't want to write safe software, they just want to write in a language they already know because they're not comfortable with learning other languages because their home language is a functional language (Haskell). It's a weird, yet short, essay that doesn't actually go anywhere.
I suspect Chris wrote the essay against their will, or because people asking them about Rust rubbed them the wrong way, because they lash out and say "This post still offends many who have tied Rust to their identity, but that’s their problem, not mine."
Its the Internet, man, if you're not offending someone, nobody is reading your shit.
