    It’s a programming language, which is particularly relevant for Linux, because it doesn’t require a runtime (separate program that runs the code). This allows it to be used in the kernel.

    But it also means that it’s very good for building libraries. With a small bit of extra work, virtually any other programming language can call libraries implemented in Rust (like you can with libraries implemented in C).
    Add to that, that Rust allows for performance similar to C and makes lots of typical C bugs impossible, and suddenly you’ve got folks rewriting all kinds of C libraries and applications in Rust, which is something you might have also heard about.

            Ah, damn. There’s folks out there who either like C or dislike Rust for whatever reason and they’ll always try to caveat what you say about this topic, so I made sure to only list facts. That’s why I got kind of angry when I thought you were still trying to caveat it, without spitting out whichever fact you thought was wrong. 🫠

            Any particular part you didn’t understand or just too much tech mumbo jumbo in general?

        Wustite, ferrous oxide, is black. FeO.

        Typical rust, usually found as hematite, is Fe2O3 and is red/brown. Also an iron oxide.

        Magnetite is also another black iron oxide, Fe3O4.

        There are quite a few other flavors of iron and oxygen too.

    We used to have good, strong open source tools made out of C (which is a lot like steel - it can only be worked by blue collar computer nerds with muscly brains). Now that steel core is corroding because of the influence of hackers and other white collar computer sorts with their creative problem solving, and unintended uses of memory.

    That new corrosion is called rust, and it eventually appears on every C project that’s left outside, unless someone comes along to brush it off occasionally.

    It’s a 2025 movie, starring Alec Baldwin, that gained notoriety in 2021, when a cinematographer was accidentally killed by a live round fired from a prop-revolver that Alex Baldwin was using.

          I’m not saying Rust is better for all applications, but IMO Golang has a pretty bad readability due to the “simplicity” they keep adhering to. Heck, even their generics support is still pretty terrible, and that’s a fundamental feature for properly readable code.
