I do 90% of my personal projects in Rust and have for several years. Almost all my professional stuff is JS. I'm not great with TS (work stuff is brownfield JS) but I do like it and use it where possible. I've been doing JS 30 years on-and-off, Rust ten, I suck at both but 🤷🏻
Received a recruiter email this morning with an attached screenshot of my profile from a site I've never used. It's... very wrong.
It's dumb, but it bothers me.
