Started work on a thing: human-panic. Generate an actionable error message + report for humans when a thread panics in a CLI. https://github.com/yoshuawuyts/human-panic …

Once this works, Rust will be pretty darn close to perfect for CLIs. The only things missing on my list are: - convenient man page generation - auto-documenting exit codes - single-command upload to OS package managers

What's your perspective on Node.js now that you've been writing Rust?

Rust has a sense of consistency and polish that JS will never achieve. I like Node's ecosystem a lot! There's so many mad science things; it's wonderful. But the fragmentation of modules, async, streams, etc. is not something that will ever improve. Makes me sad.

Heh, you already asked me this once. But they do a great job of creating a good culture around the project. The project feels respectful. The community cares a lot. Even if people would stop working on core, if the culture is right, things will end up right.
