It's a shame the author didn't frame this article differently by strictly focusing on how to cross compile a simple rust app on macOS and Windows. The focus on "scripting" seems to have really brought out the negativity in people here. I definitely learned something, I had no idea I could compile a Windows binary from my Mac.

- jsjohnst 10y agoI agree that it was very useful, despite the issue with the topic of choice. Thanks for writing it!
