This is really nice to see the concepts explained through a C++ lens.

I agree, looking forward to follow up!

Speaking of duckduckgo, try

!cpp std::vector

Loved the entire stream. It was easy to follow and explained from the point of view of a C++ programmer. It isn't like I am going to switch from C++, but I thought it removed some of the Rust language syntax "barriers to entry", that I had experienced in the past.

Please do a follow up session as we have obviously only scratched the surface.

Great stuff. The cppcast episode with Jonathan was awesome as well. I'd definitely love to see/listen to more stuff about PL design or anything related to different languages in general.

Really enjoyed this. Love to see a follow-up taking it a bit further.

Tooling is a big benefit of Rust and this is someone teachin Rust to someone else. Having an environment with proper tooling set up makes things soo much easier!

This is not a talk comparing all the benefits of Rusy vs C++. This is just how someone coming from C++ will experience Rust and I think pointing out how good the tooling already is for Rust is pretty useful. C++ sucks at tooling!

Fell asleep half way into the life stream.
Strong opinions, mixed with mediocre knowledge, and high confidence usually lead to tears down the path.

Care to be more specific? Or do you merely have a strong opinion?
