I have to say that this discussion has certainly left me
somewhat
intrigued by Rust though.
I've never given it a fair go because I find the syntax so
distasteful
and deterring.
I wonder if there's a market for a rust fork that re-skin's the
language ;)
Right now D has practical benefit of being more stable and
library rich. But switching to Rust eventually does seem tempting
as I find foundations of their type system much closer to my
beliefs about "good coding practices".
It lacks any good static reflection though. And this stuff is
damn addictive when you try it of D caliber.
