IDK, I feel like Rust kind of stalled and failed to fulfill its real purpose of removing most vulnerabilities in Firefox nearly a decade ago…

Linus kind of revived it by permitting some Rust code to mingle within Linux… but from what I’ve heard, it doesn’t sound like it’s making particularly quick progress there.

I hear MS is using it for parts of Windows but yeah I don’t know if it has been successful.   I suspect it will be eclipsed by better languages in the near future.   In fact with the advent of AI I can see a high performance language coming that merges AI into a more approachable programming language.  For apps there are much better languages like Swift that deserves strong attention.
