Absolutely not. Rust lovers are still incessant as they’ve ever been. More Rust haters is a good thing.

Can you give some examples? C/C++ devs seem to be very upset about rust content. Where all these annoying articles claiming we should rewrite everything in rust? They must be all over the place given how much C/C++ devs are upset. But I don't think I've read any?

There was that article from the android team about how rust improved their development workflow[1]. Is that what you're talking about? Was that article emotionally upsetting? Do you wish it wasn't written? What in particular is upsetting? Do you want people to stop writing technical articles to protect your feelings?

I haven’t seen a positive Rust article hit HN in over a year. Seems the zeitgeist has turned against it. All it took was the US government giving the thumbs up I guess.

On the other hand, lets face it: most of the time security in IT systems is the least priority. I mean after shipping fast, iterate fast, better performance, compatibility, architecture soundness (whatever it is), convenient tests, docs with UML diagram, well-designed interface — and somewhere in a distant drawer on the bottom you may find a note about security issues. It's often times people talk about importance of security after it destroyed the whole business.

We need more of the security. We probably don't need the Rust though.

		security incident destroying a business is so rare and penalties for security breaches are non-existent and hence while everyone talks “security is important” it really isn’t all that important - in vast majority of the situations. I mean, fucking experian, the company whose sole purpose for existence is collecting and keeping data on everyone safe leaked everyone’s data and everyone was like “oh ok, thats cool, carry on…”
