Go had this issue for a while, too, it's finally started to calm down as Go hits a mainstream that is (imo) much farther than Rust is currently. I think much is just people trying to add validity to Rust for large-scale production workloads, in the same way that Kubernetes was "a compute scheduler written in Go" or Terraform was "infrastructure as code written in Go" (maybe those are bad examples, but I know I've seen the "X written in Go" thing going on).
- gscho 5y agoThis is exactly how I see it as well. Rust used to be an obscure language with a compiler written in OCAML. If something was written in D or zig, it’s noteworthy so you mention it. I think rust has come into the mainstream enough that we can drop the “written in rust” line imo.
