- artursapek 6y agoTypical condescending HN response. We are using Rust, we've used it to build and ship a successful native desktop app.
- christiansakai 6y agoIn which sentence is this condesdending?
- catach 6y agoThe assumption that real-world use had not been tried.
- christiansakai 6y agoAn hour isn’t enough to use it on real world use, am I not right?
- steveklabnik 6y agoOne way to read your comment, which I think the way others are reading it, is “you only like rust because you haven’t used it much, try it more and you won’t like it anymore.” The implication being that only people who haven’t used Rust can like it. That may not be what you meant but it seems like that’s what people are understanding.
- christiansakai 6y agoAn honor to have Steve Klabnik himself responded to me. Thank you for your amazing work for the Rust community and the books as well. I'm a Rust hobbyist, I'm just trying to be objective, especially since majority of my day job doesn't involve Rust, and for sure my team mates refuse for me to introduce small bits of Rust code here and there, because of unknown territory.
- catach 6y agoCorrect, but the comment you responded to ended with "And the love lasts for a long time." This suggests experience far more than a single hour, does it not?
- christiansakai 6y agoSounds like a contradiction to me that he said it he only had it for 1 hr. Anyway, I'm not here to argue semantics. Not gonna reply anymore.
- catach 6y ago> he said it he only had it for 1 hr They didn't, though? They indicated that they had a similar experience of falling in love with it quickly. That says nothing about when that experience happened.
- felipellrocha 6y agoI’ve seen a lot of Golang supporters really hate on rust and make this discussion into a holy war
- felipellrocha 6y agoI have been using it for a few years now, and the love is still there
