What do you propose? To include it as part of std? Are you insane? That would bloat your binaries! (Still don’t understand how the smart compiler isn’t smart enough to remove dead code)
And imagine if there’s an update that makes cargo-watch not BlAzInGlY fAsT™ but uLtRa BlAzInGlY fAsT™? /s
- willvarfar 2y agoHow does Go compare? I'm curious as I don't know Go but it often gets mentioned here on HN as very lightweight. (A quick googling finds https://pkg.go.dev/search?q=watch https://pkg.go.dev/search?q=watch which makes me think that it's not any different?)

- lifthrasiir 2y agoI recall that I was very surprised to hear that Go standard library has extensive cryptographic stuffs. Generally that would be very unwise because they will become much harder to change or remove in spite of security issues. Turns out that this particular portion would be maintained by other maintainers who are actually trained in cryptography and security---something almost any other languages wouldn't be able to do with their resources.
