It doesn't help that there's a game called Rust out there!


I feared that, but overall combined with programmatic context (e.g. iter, array or whatever) I've had the game come up very rarely.


It gets a bit annoying that a lot of Rust libraries are named something rust-themed. I was looking at which web framework I should use (between Nickel and Iron) and so searching "rust nickel vs iron" returned absolutely nothing of relevance.

I did learn something about metals, though, so there's that.


Hah yes that is definitely an annoying property of "cutesy" library names, they're cute and fairly easy to remember but finding them afterwards is a pain in the ass compared to unfun dreary names like "rust-web".
