Who cares that it's Rust if it's closed source? Also: "All cloud features are opt-in. Data is encrypted at rest." The fact that this even needs to be stated makes it a hard no, especially for a terminal emulator.

Assuming that it wasn’t a rhetorical question: I do. I spend 1/3rd of my day in terminal emulators, and anything that reduces the number of stupid (normally memory corruption) crashes that interrupt my work is a legitimate value proposition for me. Edit: This isn’t an endorsement of this particular product, to be clear. I don’t know anything about it, except that being written in a fast, memory safe language endears…

Do we care even if it open source? The use of Rust is an implementation detail and shouldn’t really matter.

#54Somehow it feels odd that an implementation detail like the programming language it's implemented in is so prominent in the project's description. I have no idea what bash is written in and frankly I don't care much about it. It's a tool that enables me do be more productive. Could it be faster? Probably, but does anyone even notice that in the context of all the other things that we do _with_ it? Are there any benef…

#55Hi HN, I’m Zach, from Warp. Excited to get feedback on what we’ve been working on. Happy to answer any questions!
Great product! I signed up for the beta, excited to try it out.

there's been a lot of the "[blank] (but in rust)!" posts here lately, much like not too long ago node.js was the new best thing.

What terminal are you using that crashes so often? I’ve used Linux and Mac terminals for ages and cannot remember one terminal crash.
