What killed Haskell, could kill Rust, too
- Khelavaster 4y agoDoes C#/.Net support monads? The article really doesn't get into C# at all..
- ksherlock 4y ago"_As one might have guessed, this is not an essay. It's a transcript of the following talk by R. Martin with some substitutions made (SmallTalk -> Haskell, Ruby -> Rust, and others). You are free to make any conclusions from this._ [What killed Smalltalk, could kill Ruby, too](https://youtu.be/YX3iRjKj7C0?t=342 https://youtu.be/YX3iRjKj7C0?t=342)"
- yyyk 4y agoThe original talk's mention of Enterprises with horrible database schemas made sense for Smalltalk/Ruby, but not so much for Rust. An enterprise with 'horrible database schemas' would be much better off using a typical GC language - Rust competes much better as a systems language. I guess the true parallel there would be Enterprise embedded devices? Maybe also games? i.e. stuff that is often done with C++? There are some good Rust efforts there though, so I guess the Rust community dodged this one.
