I'd be really curious to know what this guy thinks of Rust.

I'm a bit curious too - he seems to hate the idea a programming language thinks the developer is an idiot.

Rust, for how perfect it really is, treats developers as humans. You must be smart if you can use it - but it doesn't trust you to have any idea what's really going on when a program gets large. This is a good thing IMO.

Honestly, anyone who thinks Rust is trash is just wrong. I can get the argument that there just will never be enough people who can use Rust but having learned Go and then Rust - I have to say Rust is the most well designed programming language ever. I can't believe what's in it and it's far and away the most advanced programming language ever. It's hard to compile but when it does you have a good chance it's right.

Woah, I can't tell if that was a brilliant troll or you honestly believe these things -- either way +1 hilarious.

What do you dislike about Rust?
