Every language you can think of, and many you can't, are in use somewhere at every large company. That is no distinction at all. So, no bet.
If it gets into the Linux kernel in any capacity, obviously it will still be in there as long as anybody still uses whatever it does. That, also, is no distinction at all. So, no bet.
I am not expressing opinions. I am expressing observations, and expectations that seem to follow. If you have other observations that bear on the question, bring them.
- nindalf 4y agoYou say this language will fail because most languages fail. Ok, make a falsifiable statement and I'll take a bet on that.
- ncmncm 4y agoYou seem very confused. I have not, in fact, said this language will fail. Bets are not interesting. I would like for Rust not to fail, but do not see the things happening that would prevent it.
- mynameisash 4y agoYou said, "The language is still more likely than not to fizzle." What's the distinction between "fail" and "fizzle"?
- ncmncm 4y agoNot much. But there is a very large difference between "will" and "might".
