Did this to build scribe-2.2.tar.gz

Get thrift 0.5.0 instead of 0.6.1/0:

sudo apt-get install php5-dev
sudo apt-get install php-config # *-php=no didn't quite work out for me

and then configure/make/install thrift and fb303

My Thoughts on Rust

Rust is the first language that has emerged in the past few years that solves enough of my problems that it would be worth not only learning & teaching an entirely new language, but also sacrificing the maturity of the language ecosystems I’ve become accustomed to.

I highly suggest you read the "Guide" provided by the language developers or this won't make much sense. These are just some of my thoughts and are intended to highlight particular things that stand out to me. I am just a practitioner and not an expert in any of these languages, so I have probably made some incorrect assumptions and out-of-date assertions. Bare with me.

Rust feels like the first time momentum has gained behind a true systems programming language that uses modern PL design techniques to prevent common errors when dealing with memory. It seems like others have previously either been too anemic to be worth adopting or too abstract to provide proper control. The type system and assignment semantics are designed specifically to preven
