- bakugo 11mo agoAre you serious? It's basically impossible to discuss C/C++ anymore without someone bringing up Rust. If you search for HN posts with C++ in the title from the last year, the top post is about how C++ sucks and Rust is better. The fourth result is a post titled "C++ is an absolute blast" and the comments contain 128 (one hundred and twenty eight) mentions of the word "Rust". It's ridiculous.
- simonask 11mo agoLots of current and former C++ developers are excited about Rust, so it’s natural that it comes up in similar conversations. But bringing up Rust in any conversation still does not amount to a personal attack, and I would encourage some reflection here if that is your first reaction.
- lkjdsklf 11mo agoWhile no one has explicitly said that, it is the implied justification of rewriting so much stuff in rust
- simonask 11mo agoI disagree very strongly that a suggestion to change something is also a personal attack on the author of the original code. That’s not a professional or constructive attitude.
