Critical reception
Engineering Infinity was nominated for a Locus Award for Best Anthology in 2012.[6]
gollark: I'm currently using Rust for my 4D tic-tac-toe project, because JS is ridiculously slow for all the tree-search-y operations the AI code has to do.
gollark: Higher-level.
gollark: Rust *is* fairly good, but also annoying coming from high-level languages.
gollark: * any pointer
gollark: The pointer has to be a `void*`. But you can cast anything to/from a `void*`.
