The hacker news comments are as usual very good too:

    yeah rust along other new languages takes package management (and some other “hard learned lessons”) seriously, which gives it an advantage over most older languages (and it’s ahead other newer languages in that there is a serious amount of adoption for rust… a package manager that has no packages to manage is not very useful)
