"It has always been that way." doesn't seem to be a helpful statement here.
- stjohnswarts 6y agoYes but people often throw out empty criticism without offering solutions or alternatives and it gets annoying after a while and is just a complaint rather than a healthy critique. As programmers we've heard them all before I guarantee it, so why add another one to the pile?
- steveklabnik 6y agoI mean, in some sense you're right, but in another, the point is that it's not a regression.
- k__ 6y agoTrue. Also, I coud imagine Rust's type-system raises the bar of dependencies that can be mangaged before everything breaks down. So a lib with 100 deps in NPM isn't the same as a lib with 100 deps in Cargo.
- tracker1 6y agoIf you lock to specific versions, I don't think it differs much. Edit: I mean if you don't use ~ or ^ in your nose dependencies,. Just explicit versions.
