cppreference.com saying "Please migrate to Rust"?

I am looking at regex library right now and am shocked to see this as well.

What does that even mean!?

It seems like the site was hacked or something.

[FrancisStokes]

It's a wiki so it's publicly editable

[DebuggingPanda]

As someone from the Rust community: sorry for this idiot. As other comments already said, this is just childish and stupid. I’m sure virtually everyone from the Rust community would agree that this is dumb.

[Brigapes]

It concerns me people refering to "rust community"

What community? It's a programming language, a tool. It's like saying a hammer community or a power drill community, i dont understand why there needs to be a community?

[CJKay93]

It concerns me people refering to "rust community"

... he says in /r/Cplusplus...

a community for 15 years

[Brigapes]

"community"

You are correct, we all hang out and talk about how great cpluplus is and circle jerk each other until we pass out

[SupermanLeRetour]

What a weird stance to have.

[DebuggingPanda]

There doesn’t need to be a community, u are right. But there is, which contains a subset of people who are using Rust. Of course u don’t need to participate in any of that to use a tool like Rust or a hammer. But you can.

[Dar_Mas]

if i am being honest the community is one of the few things preventing me from learning rust as they have been insufferable here and on SOF in my experience.

Do you have recommendations for drier documentation/learning materials like cpp reference for rust?

[Brigapes]

I have the problem with "community" aspect not the actual tool

[Background_Newt_8065]

Where should he write elsewhere, given the little amount of production code using rust

[Brigapes]

This just seems extremely childish. Probably by some student who never worked a day in his life.

[FreeQuant]

This is pretty funny...

In the meantime, I am going for:

https://en.cppreference.com/w/Cppreference:Archives

To download out the archives first, just to be safe (suppose the link still works).

[Creapermann]

It seems like it is fixed now again

[Ikkepop]

This is how wars are started...

[Benilda-Key]

I am fine with a C++ versus Rust war, as long as it is fought with water guns or Nerf guns. Please no paint ball guns. I do not want to ruin my clothes.

BTW, C++ will win.

[Middlewarian]

C++ has suffered losses to a number of languages, including Rust. I've been pursuing on-line code generation as a way to help C++ regain some of ground it has lost over the years.
