As strange as it might sound, the success of Rust seems to have reopened some doors for Ada. People in both communities are aware of this and already collaborating on various projects to mutual benefit.
- timbit42 4y agoRust and Ada are both seen as 'safe' languages that prevent many unsafe actions by programmers.
- micronian2 4y agoI haven't used Rust, but many of the comments and articles I have read about the benefits of the language and the strong desire for develop robust and/or safe software are virtually the same as what Ada supporters have been claiming for decades. It's a good thing more people are realizing we really need to stop settling for C and C++, stop investing more money into tools that simply compensate for the weak foundation of those languages, and finally adopt safer alternatives.
