> Rust seems to have this cult-like power. Rust developers are definitely drinking a lot of Kool-Aid.
The community is pretty exciting, new things are being written every day with the language, people are approaching it with optimism. Sure you can call it cult like and take the cynical route, I'm just going to be happy that I can write safe and performant code using a language with modern ergonomic features. I imagine this must have been what it was like in the early days of python and ruby.
- caymanjim 5y agoI'm not dissing Rust, I think it's great. I was just snarking about the rabid enthusiasm to emphasize that tool authors who switch to Rust might get so into the scene that they stop caring about JavaScript.
- heromal 5y agoIt's an annoying cult, same as the Tesla Crypto NFT fan boys.
