- Ygg2 4y agoI think that boils down to: A) Get lucky. B) Be the only choice. C) Get a massive corporation to back you. Otherwise you can't ride the network effect to the fullest.
- the_mitsuhiko 4y agoWhich is what I would call "organic growth". The exactly same thing happened with Python originally too. It took a very long time for Python to show up in "the industry" and in many ways it never did because it only shows up in certain parts of it.
- DoingIsLearning 4y agoFair perhaps indeed it really is a matter of time.
- yazaddaruvala 4y ago> but has not (yet) had a massive industry adoption Amazon, Microsoft, Google, Dropbox, Cloudflare, Meta. This is a list of companies I could think of quickly, that don't just "use Rust" they are "heavily invested in Rust". If this isn't "massive industry adoption", its not clear what is.
- Ygg2 4y agoWell it's not to same level as Java, at least that's how I understand.
