Story

Greetings,

I recently came accross this thread from a few years ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34501352

I am interested, in particular, by the comment by vidarh, that starts with:

"You've been given the answer already: Simplicity. You keep ignoring it."

I find myself highly interested in what this person would have to say about rust. Is it better than, for example, oberon, or it's descendents?

I have heard that Rust is a big language. By that definition, a simpler one must be better, right? And yet rust is a big thing, and .. oberon is ..dusty?

I will keep on searching, and maybe attempt to contact him/her/(other?) directly.
