@Migueldeicaza too little way too late. This should have been in preview 10 years ago vs in preview 10 years from now if we are lucky. Rust has too much momentum at this point. Better C++/Rust interop is a better use of engineering resources at this point.
@Migueldeicaza also I think the comment that "rust is foreign to c++ programmers" is funny. As a life long C++ programmer (for better or worse) Rust was super easy to learn and feels like fixed C++ to me, which is not surprising as it was invented by C++ programmers!
@mattklein123 Both C++ and Rust share the trait of not being pleasant to write for, true :-)
@Migueldeicaza I don't think you have given rust a real chance. I use Rust to write systems and to replace things I would have done with Python. It's an amazing accomplishment.
@mattklein123 @Migueldeicaza people rewrote stuff in c++ when c++ appeared
@mrt181 @mattklein123 yes, some people did some things when something happened.
@mattklein123 I have tried to move to Python for my quick hacks for a decade, but I still find myself writing Perl for that - that’s just how cozy my living room is :-)
