If people like rust for foundational software, cool, I wish they would write something in it and let it compete on its merits, and not try forcing it on people.

Foundational software needs performance, reliability—and productivity
This is not how good software is written, it's dogma. Do something people want, don't force it on them. All I see is another dependency. Don't tell me you're funny, tell me a joke.
- IshKebab 1y agoThere's tons of software written in Rust. What are you talking about?
- ninkendo 1y agoWho’s forcing rust on you exactly?
- globalnode 1y agothe only place i see any interest in rust is HN or linux kernel lol, while some highly vocal people are raging about rust taking over the world, the rest of the world is moving along without it. just an observation but it seems like a storm in a tea cup. but just saying this will likely attract an avalanche of downvotes, its like the only things you cant talk about online are anything against rust or the genocide in palestine

Ignoring the elephant in the room just for a second: C++ left gradually more and more, and more performance on the table and eventually somebody is going to stroll past and take it - that was Rust and sure, the C++ people are angry "No, that's ours, we were coming back to get that". Were you though?
