Hylo specifically says it intends "world domination" (next year in fact, having apparently completed all the delayed 2023 goals and also all its 2024 goals this year, I guess maybe they're going to do it all in December?)
But I don't really see this from Rust. I'm sure Hylo's "world domination" is a joke, but, so is the "Rust Evangelism Strike Force". Rust people I've interacted with strike me as very much more accepting of the "better tool" theory than of some weird cult or panacea. When somebody in a Rust forum says (e.g. about JPEG XL) "Ooh we should use Rust" and I say "No, WUFFS. This problem is what WUFFS is for" the responses tend to be a mix of "Yeah, I guess" and "I didn't know that existed. Thanks for the link" rather than cultist denial.
- benreesman 2y agoHaha we’ve tangled before and in my experience when the Rust evangelism strike force is on the case discretion is the better part of valor. I admire both the technical sophistication and passion you folks bring to the table, the one true language thing just isn’t my bag. I pine for the Halcyon days when HN was run by the Rust people rather than the LLM idiots. Keep doing what you’re doing, one hacker to another.
