He/She was talking about developer ergonomics. And in that particular sense, while i have programmed in Swift and Rust, i completely agree with him/her.
In your disagreement you are pointing out how you think Rust is more _advanced_ than Swift. But this goes into a tangential topic, that was not what the parent was pointing out.
In developer productivity and ergonomics Rust is not far away from C++, and Swift is more akin to Kotlin, C# and Java, but it feels a little better like Typescript or Dart.
I wonder, why, so many times, Rust folks (Why to get tied to a tech, i also don't get it) gets so hostile and arrogant about the language, and to be fair this is some of the reasons i keep a certain distance from it, and i can imagine that im not the only one.
- jamil7 6y ago> Rust folks (Why to get tied to a tech, i also don't get it) gets so hostile and arrogant about the language It's honestly crossed over from being a meme (rewrite it in Rust) into becoming obnoxious. Obviously a small, vocal minority as always.
- oscargrouch 6y agoOr it might have something to do with academic appealing programming languages as Haskell also comes to mind where this was some sort of a ritual within its followers.
