That's interesting because I remember people talking about Rust green threads as M:N mapping, which seems to be the only difference.

Why? Any links to this decision?

> That being said Rust is definitely a much higher level language than either C or Zig. The availability of `Arc` and `Box`, the existence and reliance on `drop` I mean, C++ have RAII and stuff like unique pointer, does that make it high

Except if you need to expose or consume a C API, or you need to use some obscure performance improvement.

This depends on what you mean by low level. Commonly it means, how much you need to take care about minute, low-level issues. In that way C, Rust, and Zig are about the same. Dependencies have nothing to do with low-level vs. high-level but

Sure, but giving them a generous IP license isn't considered a forfeit of your IP. Blizzard actually went a step beyond and asked for your forfeit of any IP that you make with their tools. Not that any of those tools was used for Turtl

Sure, at the start, yes. But then came Java and Wap. You could, in theory, download a jar from a site and try to run it. God knows if it would run. But it wasn't a locked-down app store that bypassing would land you in hot water.

I don't disagree. A big reason 2026 is the Year of the Desktop Linux is that MSFT lost any interest in the Desktop PC platform. Outside selling more of my data and filling it with AI Slop. But if, say, AAPL had won the PC wars, we&#x27

They are the Kings of Apple Ecosystem Deprecations - not just hardware. I'm comparing them to the x86 and the Windows ecosystem. Google is the God-King of Killing software.

I have instructed Claude to make two games in each of your engines for Q3 2031. Your claim is still invalid :P

by Ygg2 6mo ago
Interesting. I merely pointed the flaw in your logic. You assumed I'm some multipolar proponent.

No, the statement is there is more Rust engines than games. It also adds easy to move goalpost of notability, that only accounts for luck and age, not actual capabilities.

Here is ten games in bevy engine https://youtu.be/50g3eSrSM6Q Rust has like 2-3 game engines and a bunch of bindings.

Tech wise? If you have your UI in Rust it's both the safest and most performant language to implement it. And you don't need to ship the entire web stack just to get GUI.
