I fear Rust may be going down the C++/Boost template metaprogramming rathole. From that C++ thread on HN right now: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13584167 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13584167 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13583935 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13583935 Call me skeptical, but I do not believe ADDING stuff to C++ is going to make it more competitive against Python in ease of use. Especially as programmers will still always be free to use all features, and any large enough project is going to end up with all of them.
