Resource safety and expressiveness on level of Python (or close) combined with speed of C.
That said, while I love the idea of Rust I find the language itself offputting somehow. I don't know, maybe I just need to give it another try.
- sushisource 9y agoFor me it's a love hate thing. I love the way it stops me from doing dumb shit, and really makes you think hard about how to architect properly. I hate annoying little nitpicky stuff like it won't auto-upcast a u8 to an i32, for example. There should at least be a compiler flag to allow that. I mostly love it though. The stuff that bothers me is relatively minor and I think will go away as I get more fluent with the language.
