Yeah, on the flip side Apple is putting some serious engineering resources / funding in it. With Rust it is always creating committees, teams , sub-teams and so on and to actually do implementation there are far fewer resources.
So overall things balance out even if not big win for either.
Swift: Close process + big funding -> fast implementation / less feedback
Rust: Open process + little funding -> slow implementation / lot of feedback
Also even with lot of feedback many community members in Rust are already claiming very new features like Async in Rust are deficient in parts and feels rushed.
- vlang1dot0 5y agoThis feels intentionally ignorant of the state of Rust considering there is more funding and more people paid to work directly on Rust than any prior point in the project's entire history.
- geodel 5y agoI am also best paid person today than any prior point in my entire employment history. However that does not mean my total compensation is anywhere near Google engineer or even in same magnitude.
