I tried that, but the Rust build process was too painful, and agents seemed to burn a lot of tokens guessing how to get the code to compile. I rewrote my project in Elixir and it’s been going much more smoothly
- graemep 2mo agoElixir is great, and I have recently started using it myself, but its not a substitute for Rust. Try writing device driver in Elixir, or anything CPU intensive.
- freedomben 2mo agoGP said nothing of what they were building. Seems pretty probable it was a web service/application rather than a device driver.
- graemep 2mo agoThat is my point. It might be better for some use cases, but those are very different from the ones Rust is best.
- jes5199 2mo agoI’m building a heavily parallel dataflow system. I thought Rust might be good for concurrency.

- jes5199 2mo agowhat’s the difference
