I think rust has its merits, don't get me wrong. I just think it has a large cargo cult following of inexperienced script kids who have never used it for anything other than pretending to know what they're taking about.
- kibwen 11y agoAnd what makes you think that?
- crystalgiver 11y agoWell I have no source proper since it's just an opinion I hold and not a fact. But just looking at some of the comments in thread, they essentially boil down to: "Dur I'm so smart, Rust makes this obsolete, C++ got it 'wrong'" Like man, do you want a gold star? WE ALL KNOW ABOUT THE BORROW CHECKER. You're not informing anyone, you're just publicly masturbating on HN. 99% chance it's just some know-it-all talentless n00b who's proficient in JS and loves react.js. "Wah!!! Move semantics make my bwain hoyt!! I got a segfault :( C++ makes me feel bad about myself. But it's okay because it's old and obsolete, Rust is better."
