The unicyclist on the left is saying the bicyclist is only riding a bike because they don't have enough skill for a unicycle. The unicyclist on the right is saying they can't learn to ride a bike because they've spent too much of their life riding a unicycle. It's a dig at people who don't want to switch to memory-safe languages like rust.

It's a dig at people who don't want to switch to memory-safe languages like rust.

Now that's a stretch, it could be anything (no, it couldn't, although I think this may have application to some other pairs of languages)

I mean, that's just my interpretation. I don't think it's a stretch though, switching to memory safe languages like rust has been pretty big recently.

How did you interpret the comic?

I should have added a '/s', but I thought it is somewhat obvious, it really reminds of all the 'git gud at C instead of doing Rust'

Yeah, hard to tell without the /s unfortunately.
