I tried Rust a while ago (I do mainly Python) but not for long enough to get my head around it (the borrow checker).
Is it now past the peak hype cycle, or do people still love it?
- DangitBobby 6y agoI learned it a while back during some huge hype and put it down for a while after slow, minor, painful success. I recently came back and it feels much improved, and my troubles with the borrow checker seem to finally be something I have overcome. I think it will continue to be loved.
- swsieber 6y agoThere was a real improvement to the borrow checker to make it use non-lexical-lifetimes. The practical implications were the borrow checker being much better at reasoning about mutually exclusive borrows between branches.
