Please do yourself a favor and don’t waste 5m of your life reading this article like I did. It’s about a team of allegedly experienced C++ developers at a start-up that spent seven months building a project only to spend another two months rewriting it in Rust and then a few more months moving from async to Tokio. But those lost months have not been in vain, because they have 1600 stars on Github. They actually bragged about their Github stars. It seems the Rust euphoria has reached such levels that people have stopped thinking critically both about the inexplicably bad business decisions and the near-zero technical content described in the article.
