Highlights from "I spent 6 years developing a game in Rust and it just shipped, AMA" (2024)

The answer I found most interesting is was "What was the most frustrating part of using Rust?". Like them, I wish Rust had some time of compile time reflection (and the rustconf fiasco partly to blame for that). As well as the ecosystem seemly valuing different things that I do. Similarly I to find myself with a value mismatch with the wider Rust ecosystem.

The author seems to have drifted towards Zig. Value-wise Zig seems better aligned with my values. But when I've looked at Zig the language I've found things like @This(). Sometimes I just wish that that Common Lisp (or Guile) had a better ops story.
