What makes you think I'm trolling? Honestly, I'm tired of all these mediocre devs just pushing their keyboards in some inefficient, unsafe language and are totally unaware of the alternatives. If I'm showing them a greater alternative, am I trolling on this site? Can you show a single reply where I spoke something that doesn't holds true? I accept that there are certain opinions of every individuals that are not ought to match, certain disagreements and other things, but you should respect mine too.

You should definitely try rust, it's better than its counterparts, rapidly growing, memory safe language with utmost priority on efficiency. Plus its cross-platform too :)

Rust has good IDE support, graphical debuggers are around the corners, gui toolkits are coming and compile times are improving. By the time 2017 ends, rust will improve on all these things, while .NET platform will still be stuck with a slow GC (2017 and GC in same sentence lol) while rust is going to get faster, safer and better. I suggest you to see for yourself, maybe start learning it - it ain't so hard ;)

The big 4 are already using rust in various internal projects (including Microsoft). This comment just shows that you're afraid your job will be taken up by one of the rust devs in future..
> Are you telling me that a Rust code base with over 100 devs won't have any problems

If you've had 100 problems writing c++, rust will reduce 99 of them. No data races, no SEGFAULTS - yes its impossible, no pointer mathematics, no bad (nullptr) state of pointers and much much faster than c++. Just see the benchmarks here - https://benchmarksgame.alioth.debian.org/u64q/regexredux.htm...

Rust is 2.73 seconds and c++ is at 17 seconds LOL. C is ahead but not too much. ( 1 sec difference and who cares about a second when c++ is ....). Btw, have fun with your spray paint ;)

> Too bad no good examples for C / C++ projects in Circle CI 2.0. Barrier to entry too high compared to Travis CI.

Hahaha, just stop using C/C++. It's 2017 for god sake why do you want to write inefficient, memory-unsafe, non-scaling softwares when you can avoid all these?

They got some time to re-implement javascript parts into another shitty memory-unsafe language, and it's trending on HN. What a time to live-in

When are we getting official support for superior languages without GC? Say like Rust?
Another reason why we should not be using c++...
This is why I've lost respect for lots of developers. I mean why the heck would someone re-implement a piece of code in memory unsafe language? We've a better language now, but this habit isn't dying very soon...
