Field specific, to be sure, but I know literally zero scientists turning to Rust.

Field specific, to be sure, but I know literally zero scientists turning to Rust.
- jrimbault 4y agoYeah. I have one physicist friend, and as I far I know from casual conversion with them, the whole team at his lab don't even know if they are writing C or C++. And explaining python to him, because he's required to teach a bit of it, was a rabbit hole of explaining fractal things. My impression is that at least a number of scientists don't know and don't care.
- Fomite 4y agoYeah, in my field its: R >>>>>>> Python >> Julia > Everything Else This of course ignores that a bunch of the underlying code for both the R and Python things people use is written in other languages, because they'll never really look at that code.
