  Ironically, and unfortunately, this doesn't actually emulate the FM Towns Marty (or even the regular FM Towns PC) like I assumed it would.

  Mysteriously, backslash has been mapped to backspace for some reason.

    Old terminals had this shenanigans going on too. Backspace was not backspace and so on

  Why never seeing a title “written by C” or Java or js

    The main feature of apps written in Rust is that they are written in Rust.

    Because they predate HN, and aren't hip languages any longer.

    There was a time for CoffeeScript, PureScript, Elm, Ruby and whatever else you can think of.

    Naturally Lisp has to have monthly entries.

    Because nowadays "written in Rust" means "written by AI", as Java or C are not so sexy for LLMs /s
