> Given how much it changes I would NOT want to bet on using it for at least 5 years.

Rust may be changing, but it's almost entirely _additions_. We've been stable for roughly 18 months now.



Sorry should have been more clear, my meaning was more around things like cargo and tooling rather than the language proper.

Don't take any of my criticism too harshly either, I do like and use Rust for side projects. But it is about 3 years away from where I'd consider using it for anything. I'm a bit more conservative than most here seem to be. Funny part is I'm the maverick in using new stuff compared to the people I work with.

Keep on trying to improve things either way!
