Yup, which you're happy to point out in every single thread about Rust. I can set my clock to a post from you about how another language did it first, it's about a useful as a comment saying "+1" these days.
Why not celebrate that these concepts are making it into more and more languages? Languages that have rich, vibrant communities and ecosystems.
Seems a lot more productive to me then yelling at the kids to get off your lawn.
- pjmlp 8y agoBecause many praise Rust as being the language that did those features first, as if they were re-writing history. Those misconceptions eventually become urban myths and lead to situations like many young devs nowadays thinking that C was the very first systems language, while we old timers know for fact we had plenty of other choices. Rust is a great language, just lets not pretend it is the first in many of its safety or portability features.
