Too few sampled comments (1) to say how often HN recommends it.?
Why HN links it
Linked in a thread on migrating from the Warp web framework to Axum in Rust. The post covers middleware, per-request data and Axum extensions, and the comment responds to those points.
Summarised by Claude from a sample of 1 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.

What Hacker News says?
Last night I was writing a blog post about how to use const generics. I included instructions on installing Rust Beta, and setting your directory to use the Beta compiler instead of Stable. I started to write a disclaimer like "By the way, this will be stabilized in a future version of Rust, probably on..." and realized that const generics were being stabilized in less than 9 hours! So I removed all that stuff. If y…
