@sir @derle Your rust flame wars are always fun, since the sorts of things you espouse for programming in general—simplicity, speed, respect for sharp tools—are the same things that draw people to rust. And so people can never get why you don't like it more.And it's always good fun

@codesections @derle maybe rust is simple if you come from a C++ backgroundRelative simplicity has got nothing on absoulte simplicity

@sir @derle Not simple to *learn*, of course. But all built on (relatively few) simple core primitives. I'm impressed by how few special cases there are (but then my day job involves javascript, which is basically a pile of special cases).Rust and C are two languages that have trigger the "difficult to really *get*, but once you do, everything makes *so much sense*" feeling. In contrast with something like Go, which has more of a pick-it-up-in-a-weekend-and-get-to-work feel (also good)
