> Pair it with a better, more modern, and safer native-compiled language and get the same effect. Zig, Nim, Go, hell even Carp.

I love how trollish it is not to talk about Rust in that context.

Maybe they didn’t want to bring forth the Rust stans
Your message looks like a perfect example of trolling to me.
This entire thread is a troll, or a demonstration of Poe's law.
If we'd just rewrite all of the things in Rust we could solve computer bugs forever, and world hunger too.
This having to re-write things is obviously Rust’s fatal flaw.

I cannot wait for the next great language, the one that brings all Rust’s advantages which is a pure superset so that it can still compile existing code. Surely something like that ought to end all these petty language rivalries forever!

This is what the Rust Evangelism Strike Force™ told me and by God, I believe them.
And end mortality!

Ah, the ol' double-free bug!
The last time someone promised to free the Men from the gift of Ilúvatar, it did not go well for them. A good reason never to use Rust!
BRHS does not sound as cool as BGHS. This is the only reason to exclude Rust and prefer Go. :p
