Then let's keep pouring out these articles until we stop using a language that's worse in almost every way than Rust (and error handling that's a little bit worse).
- brabel 2y agoIt shouldn't be an objective to stop using any language. There's lots of people who like Java (or whatever language you don't like) and they're happy with that. It does the job, it gets them what they want. Rust perhaps does not and never will. It's not our job to tell people they need to stop doing whatever they're doing unless what they're doing is causing trouble for everyone else, which you'll have a hard time arguing is the case here (a better case, I think, could be to convince people to stop using C and C++ because of the real dangers of lacking memory safety?! But I am sure lots of C user would respond the same way I am doing here about Java :D).
