Comment on: Isn't .NET a weird choice?

IIS will (hopefully) be non-essential for ASP.NET in the future, what with OWIN being developed. The Web API can already run without IIS, but I believe that ASP.NET MVC currently has too many dependencies on System.Web, which I can only hope is soon to change.

Fairly sure Rust did support pointers at one point with the @ symbol - there's an article on it here.

The Rust language has changed quite a bit since a few years back. Didn't Rust have garbage collection only a few years back?
