I do think the language offers some genuine advantages and strikes a difficult balance between features, practicality and speed.
I think it has some problems as well (the learning curve is still steep, and I don't know if that's solvable).
However I think the reason Rust gets attention here is because it is heavily used in crypto, which is regularly pumped in HN as well as in other places.

- darksaints 5y agoNot sure if you meant cryptography or cryptocurrency, but assuming cryptocurrency...is it actually used that much? I can't think of any major cryptocurrencies that use it. All of the major ones are C/C++.
- conradludgate 5y agoI can only list Solana (from my experience in Rust spaces with people hoping to use Solana expecting us to be experts)
