On: Why is Rust difficult?

[dullgiulio]

I do hope it's not true that people from the community would attack you for writing a compile-to-go language.

I don't think it's such a bad idea, considering how stable the language itself is, it's a pretty solid bet.

Spend some time on golang-nuts, proposing ideas from "languages for academics".

Why not fix Go instead?

[stubish → flavio81]

You can't fix Go directly. You have to convince the language designers that it needs fixing. The fastest way of doing that would likely be at least a proof of concept, or better yet, a complete tool that gets significant community uptake.

Ah, unlike programmable languages like Scheme or Lisp, where I can modify the language as needed, by using code.
