Nice tool. But marmite is a trademark, you may need to change it if Marmite claims infringement.

Aren't trademarks attached to specific goods and services? In other words the trademark protecting the yeasty food spread based does not prevent someone from using the word for something like a record label: https://www.marmiterec.com or a static site generator.

You will find out in court

The fact people still add "written in Rust" to HN submissions is almost as funny as how effective it is, which itself is almost as funny as the fact that people like me can't stop commenting on it.

I hope it goes full circle into "btw I use arch" levels of parody

Gentoo is faster.

I first posted without mentioning "marmite" neither "Rust", then a friend reminded me that both things would engage. People are very triggered by those words.

You forgot the "blazing fast" part; that drives them bonkers LOL!

Blazing Fast New Project Written in Rust (it's a SSG btw)

Indeed. The blazingly fast speeds of compiling all of the elements that make up arch from scratch (just to say "I use Gentoo"), over that of just using the iso always amazes me.

Only a few years more of my life lost to check all of the code of Linux and ensure I know what is running. I'm not bitter about and looking for better solutions to that at all.

Perhaps it was more parody? Since becoming vegan my mind more clear and in touch with the universe. You should try it too!

People hates it because everyone tries to use as ot was Nutella. Used in the right way, butter + marmite on a toast is awesome.

I have to google the definition of the marmite word in English because in my first language it means something like cauldron or pot. Definitely a faux-ami.

It comes in a little black (glass) pot - maybe that's where the name comes from

I really like it. I have been on a quest to find very simple ssgs such as this. I have been trying to out Zola, as mentioned in the readme, but I really want to make sure there aren't things like telemetry or other random features injected in or getting added (as seems to be the case with jekyll with ai-folio or academic pages) so it takes a while to go through everything.

Ai-folio or academic pages is basically my use case or target, but I want something with zero javascript, which tends to be a bit hard in todays age.

That's right, but beware the relatively recent* legal innovation of trademark dilution: https://www.inta.org/fact-sheets/trademark-dilution-intended.... This muddies the water.

*The US federal version of dilution law came into effect in the 1990s.

rust is just a good language to use and the ecosystem is growing every month.
