You say this language will fail because most languages fail. Ok, make a falsifiable statement and I'll take a bet on that.


You seem very confused. I have not, in fact, said this language will fail.

Bets are not interesting. I would like for Rust not to fail, but do not see the things happening that would prevent it.


You said, "The language is still more likely than not to fizzle." What's the distinction between "fail" and "fizzle"?


Not much. But there is a very large difference between "will" and "might".
