At the beginning of 2030, I found this essay in my archives. From what I know today, I think it was very insightful at the moment of writing. And I feel it should be published because it can teach us, Rust developers, how to prevent that sad story from happening again.

What killed Haskell, could kill Rust, too

What killed Haskell, could kill Rust, too. Why would I even mention Haskell in this context? Well, Haskell and Rust are deeply related. Not because Rust is Haskell without HKTs. (Some of you know what that means, and the rest of you will wonder for a very long time). Much of the style of Rust is similar in many ways to the style of Haskell. In some sense Rust is a reincarnation of Haskell, with a little bit of C-ish like syntax, a very small amount.

Is Haskell dead?

a simple git branching model (written in 2013)

This is a very simple git workflow. It (and variants) is in use by many people. I settled on it after using it very effectively at Athena. GitHub does something similar; Zach Holman mentioned it in this talk.

Update: Woah, thanks for all the attention. Didn't expect this simple rant to get popular.

See https://stackoverflow.com/questions/729692/why-should-text-files-end-with-a-newline

A newline in a text file is a terminator, not a separator. This means each line should have a newline at the end of it, including the last line of the file.

Many editors automatically add the newline at the end of the file. Some do not. If you can configure your editor to ensure there is always a newline at the end of every line, please do so.

Because many editors do add this newline, if you commit a text file without it, when someone else edits the file, their editor will (correctly) add the newline. This causes a spurious diff in the file. Spurious
