It's a pity the author misses on the nice language features of Rust. Compared to Go or C++ that can be more appealing to some engineers. I mean for example traits, pattern matching, immutability and the functional features.
- ncmncm 7y agoRust does (still) have the advantages of a clean slate. Default const, default pass by move, move that can't fail are nice things C++ can never have because they can only be in there from the start. The future will identify other features, in other languages, that Rust can never have, for the same reasons. Rust is very quickly accumulating unfortunate accidents that will make is seem less shiny as it matures. That is just a natural progression. Will Rust ever be mainstream? It is still possible. In five years it either will be, or will be fading and something else capturing attention it commanded. Only time can tell.
