I’ve messed with Rust. I can’t figure out the point. Every benefit is just “safety”. These people would apparently die if they ever had to deal with machine language and direct manipulation of memory. I guess if you’re working with a bunch of Indians they can only screw so much up in Rust?
Otherwise if you want low level I can’t see why to not use existing C/C++ and if you’re looking for simple scripting there’s things like Python.
So I guess it’s just to give some freaks a pet project. I could find better things to do than write yet another compiled language. Want something in the middle, Pascal has been around for 50+ years, but no we need something new for some reason.
