It's really a shame that you won't learn the language because there are a lot of fans. Maybe it would be worth considering that this may be more than just hype.

It's really a shame that you won't learn the language because there are a lot of fans. Maybe it would be worth considering that this may be more than just hype. Especially now that the Linux Kernel may be adopting Rust, and most of the big tech companies are building new projects in Rust.
Go's approach to massive parallelism, Erlang and the supervisor/actor model, Rust and it's borrow-checker. These are all milestones in programming language development. There's a reason for the hype.
- GoblinSlayer 4y agoThe reason for hype is attention economy and aggressive marketing.
- timeon 4y agoAttention economy in case of programming language? Is it really?
- manfre 4y agoThe issue for me is the type of fans and not the quantity. They give a sense of the community surrounding the language. My free time is limited and I've been spoiled by active involvement with a few open source communities that have been spectacular. To me, the community is as important as the project.
