Rust's Downfall: From Rising Star to Rejected by Major Projects (2025)
- sgt 9mo agoMight it see a popularity burst though, due to Rust's inherent advantage in AI augmented development? Being more deterministic makes it easier for LLM's to produce working code in it.
- eimrine 9mo agoThere is not such an advancement, Rust is made for dealing with human's mistakes. Chatbots can stop having such a mistakes and generate more terse formal specs instead.
- wookmaster 9mo agoAren’t they trained on human code?

- goku12 9mo agoThe question by @wookmaster isn't just valid, if we're to follow your argument, chatbots may as well skip C and write directly in assembly or machine code for maximum efficiency! You seem to put too much faith in chatbots that you forget that correcting AI mistakes in code is a major job now. Even the best coders use AI to only fill in obvious code, not to think on their behalf.

- goku12 9mo agoThat long list of out-of-context jargon you threw over there is more valid in assembly than in C. All you're doing is to ignore the points that the others make and launch red-herring and ad-hominem attacks on them instead. I don't know what your issue is, but your attitude and insults only expose yourself. So keep them to yourself.
- eimrine 9mo ago> That long list of out-of-context jargon you threw over there is more valid in assembly than in C Give me please a short list of examples confirming this.
- wookmaster 9mo agoSaying chatbots trained on human code won’t have human errors feels off is all
- goku12 9mo agoWhy does this misleading article from more than a year ago get posted repeatedly? https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46510073 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46510073 This submission doesn't mention the publish time either, and it uses the link that hides a bunch of replies that debunk the article.
