Speaking of Rust: I talked to a Rust enthusiast the other day. She said she’s pretty satisfied with Rust’s comprehensive standard library. I was just like: “Huh?!” In my experience, you need a third-party library for pretty much anything.
Sadly, that discussion was not very fruitful, because I didn’t have any examples at hand. 🫤 So, from now on, every time I encounter something that, IMHO, should be in the standard library, I’ll add it to a list. 😅 Let’s see how long that list will get – or, who knows, maybe it’ll stay a short list because I was wrong.
