While I agree that de Raadt sounds bitter, I also agree with the sentiment. When I look at the software development scene these days (may it be compilers or libraries) it genuinely feels like there is more advocacy than substance. I am not going to blame Rust for that. Rust is a language I have been meaning to look into and they have a need to be heard over the ruckus. Yet the preponderance of propaganda begs the question: is this real or is it going to be yet another language that fails to reflect the claims? While learning something new is wonderful, I would rather expend my energy on a language that has something genuinely interesting to offer.
