So what is Rust all about, really? Is it "dragging C++ hackers half way to ML?" I feel like I'm half in the target market and half not. I do spend all day every day trying to make system programming simpler. I don't care for C++ though and I don't have strong feelings on ML.
Not dragging, more like throwing C/C++ folks (including myself) a life raft wrt. safety. The ML-isms -- mostly just sums and patterns -- are just .. like basics of modern living? Safety is the thing. C++ niche, but memory safe, including race-free multithreading. That's hard.
Basically I've an anxious, pessimist personality; most systems I try to build are a reflection of how terrifying software-as-it-is-made feels to me. I'm seeking peace and security amid a nightmare of chaos. I want to help programmers sleep well, worry less.
There is, of course, a category of programmers who either don't feel like software is a terrible chaos nightmare, or even enjoy the thrill of it. To them, presumably Rust feels more like a cold wet blanket than a warm comforting one.
