Are you really surprised or upset to see those types of comments when the article itself is fundamentally about trying to adapt Go to become more Rust-like?
Personally I think people can't help but notice the trend of Go users rediscovering bug-by-bug and frustration-by-frustration why Rust was designed the way it is.
- vlunkr 4y agoNo, I'm not surprised, that's why it's on the bingo card. They are very different languages, so endlessly comparing them is tiresome.
- morelisp 4y ago> the article itself is about trying to adapt Go to become fundamentally more Rust-like? The article does not even mention Rust. Not every attempt to make something 'safer' is an attempt to make it 'fundamentally more Rust-like'. (And you're also misusing the word "fundamental" - even if we grant this is "Rust-like" this is adapting their code to make their Go programs practically more Rust-like.)
- stouset 4y agoI should have said "the article itself is fundamentally about…", and not "Go to become fundamentally more…". Apologies. I've edited my comment.
- pjmlp 4y agoNot only Rust, there is plenty of programming language design experience between 1950 and 2009, but naturally that was PhD stuff not worth taking into consideration.
