it's not a hot take to say "solidity bad" anymore, so instead i'll lead with this.
the abstraction stack imposed by the solidity compiler is fundamentally flawed and no language whose syntax and semantics are derived from this will fix this problem

Struct members can be of type function.
This got me thinking.. If structs can have funcs, and funcs can have storage pointers, could one in theory write an ERC20 token whose logic is contained in a struct?

You'll learn more about the EVM, you'll appreciate the hell out of Solidity's abstractions, and you'll learn when to break out the assembly blocks.

in solidity you do not control control-flow. they allocate free memory pointer, even if you do not use memory. casting is lazy and can break near unchecked blocks. calls revert on failure but try catch blocks still fail on success when target has no code.

decentralization doesn't matter. privacy doesn't matter. censorship resistance doesn't matter.

and variance has demonstrated we can go a long time without ever needing the properties that separate us from the b*nks.
but that day will come.

I can still smell low morale from many of my peers who truly care—those who think decentralization is the point and are not yet nihilists mocking the mere notion of alignment. It wafts across the network like a miasma of cynicism. To those blessed few, I say:

hot take: given the technology, most l2's will not migrate away from highly permissioned censorship, halting, and irregular state transitions
the benefit is too low and the cost too high
it's the same reason the majority of protocol liquidity runs on upgradeable proxies and
Linea's team made a decision to halt block production by pausing the sequencer and censor attacker addresses to protect the users and builders in our ecosystem. Like other L2s, we are still in the "training wheels" phase of existence, giving us safeguards to use.
