- jjnoakes 4y ago"Moreover, Rust is extremely complex, similar or worse than C++"
- coliveira 4y agoThat's my point, if Rust is as complex as C++, it is not a good choice compared to the other languages. In fact, many people still avoid C++ and use C exactly for this same issue, C++ is too complex to use. These people who use C will justifiably have the same argument against Rust, it is too complex, and migrate when needed to something else like Go.
- jjnoakes 4y agoIf a less complex language meets your requirements, by all means use it. But I still have no idea how that is relevant here. C doesn't give you safety and less complex languages don't give you performance and control. That's why comparing rust to c++ is useful. But the way I think the higher complexity of rust over c is also not a big deal in practice, for much the same reason as I gave for rust vs c++. But that is also irrelevant here.
