What world does this guy live in that a program in Rust is easier to get running on any random machine than python script?

I've never had issues shipping Rust binaries to people, unlike in Python where they usually have to install dependencies.

I had the vague sense that it was as easy to cross-compile rust binaries as it is for go.

Distributing single binary would be easier, but `cargo install xyz` seems harder than python script

I made a new GitHub release with binaries for Mac and Linux pretty recently. In this sense, you can just download the binary and get up and running.
