Please tell that to the many millions of C/C++ programmers writing new code every day, who are only vaguely familiar with Rust if at all. If by consensus you mean "consensus amongst the vanguard of Hacker News" then yes. If you mean "consensus" as in the "consensus of the software development industry" then absolutely not.
