I wonder if #RustLang chose its #[name] attribute syntax precisely to avoid Rust snippets accidentally becoming hashtags on social media.

Unlike, for example, C. #include and #define and #ifdef are lost causes as hashtags unless you _wanted_ to use them as a way to find inline C snippets in toots!

On the other hand, I found a number of interesting people to follow by searching for those hashtags, so maybe that's actually a good thing.
