You do eventually start hitting the corners that could be seen as regrettable. But despite that I do still feel reasonably happy writing it in my day job and spare time, and it affords tremendous leverage when it's at its best. An important language to study and use.https://twitter.com/yoshuawuyts/status/961005785219203072 …

- Naming of `String`/`str` - separate value/type syntaxes (ugly dependent type retrofit) - lack of an effects system, leading to (futures context controversy & surprising panics) - outcome of mutpocalypse - `=` vs `:` for struct field inits - Hash API performance - more...?

Some of these were to lack of 'innovation points' and lack of research at the time. In the end you have to ship. It's up to future languages to experiement with the design space - there's still lots to explore.
@ollfredo's https://github.com/ollef/sixten is interesting, for instance.
