OP has been proselytizing Rust on HN like it's the new coming of the Messiah. This kind of language advertising where one can't even bother mentioning one nega

  My personal view: C++ has issues and problems because it's too old and it's not going to get rid of the old baggage, hence it will have to carry it forward while adding new stuff on top (concepts, ranges...). Those issues are not going away, they will only get worse over time. Rust has different kinds of issues and problems because it's still relatively young. For instance, pretty bad compile times (even compared to C++ with heavy templates use). But that's solvable, it will just take time. Most issues with the language itself that I've personally encountered were of the kind "it's not stabilized yet" or "it's not fully implemented yet".

  > OP has been proselytizing Rust on HN like it's the new coming of the Messiah. That doesn't even come close to being relevant. Address the argument, not the person.

    Correcting the same misleading statements over and over again is a chat bot's job and not an enjoyable task for a human being. I was just pointing out that you're probably wasting your time, but you're of course free to discuss the finer points of class-based OO or Rust's learning curve for the Nth time, if you're so inclined.
