Gopher

A user of the programming language Go, created by Google. The brain behind the language basically describes Gophers as retarded children and I quote "They’re typically, fairly young, fresh out of school, probably learned Java, maybe learned C or C++, probably learned Python. They’re not capable of understanding a brilliant language but we want to use them to build good software. So, the language that we give them has to be easy for them to understand and easy to adopt."

Rust Evangelism

The practice where Rust developers (aka evangelists) and cult followers harass other developers, code maintainers, and open source communities in order to get them to submit to the borrow checker and rewrite everything in Rust. They're known to cite Stackoverflow surveys that Rust is so loved, and that memory safety is free in Rust.
You know, Rust Evangelists proposed that Linux be rewritten in Rust.
Man, the amount of Rust Evangelism on Hacker News is just insane.

10xer

A mythical creature that mostly lives in the heads of people who frequent online forums like Hacker News, or suffered brain hemorrhage due to the insane amount of LeetCode they engaged in. This creature is usually a developer that supposedly produces 10 times the output of the average developer, and they are usually found (according to the legend) doing some useful task (mainly figuring out how to add another abusive way to increase ad clicks) at FAANG and similar enterprises.
Santa and 10xers are very popular characters.
