Not trying to demean you or them but, most people get paid actual money for doing a day or more of work

Saying rust is unusable is pretty extreme. Tons of serious applications and infrastructure have been using it in production for years generating lots of money and preventing CVEs. …

Asking a compiler to understand a programmers intent for underspecified mutability is beyond the halting problem.

I do like rust and like I said, ideally in my opinion. I also did say choosing go was more pragmatic. We are on the same page believe it or not.

The automatic gc doesn't seem like an actual deal breaker though. They probably just didn't want to redesign a bunch of data types that assumed one existed. I'm not arguing saying …

I'm not saying this to start a language war but. Look at the cognitive complexity and tooling complexity involved in a c# project. Seriously, every speed bump you hit in your ide t…

I can see the appeal. Not having to write C# style oop probably gave the team a huge productivity boost. I bet it compiles hundreds of times faster making the team, cicd, and dev e…

There should be an award for this comment.

The compiler ensures you are writing memory safe code. Otherwise it rejects that code and helps you see the mistake you made. Why people are so upset when the compiler prevents the…

Not sure when your friend tried Go but for the last 5-10 years or so go has been really easy to make REST services. It's practically baked into the language but if you want it even…
