Rust sounds like a challenging language to use, but many developers love it because it is very performant due to its built-in memory safety features, which make it more secure and lightweight. I read about Tilde which rewrote their Skylight product in Rust and reduced its resource usage by a factor of 100, from 5 GB to 50 MB. If that is an accurate image of what it can do, then wow! That issue huge, and I can easily see why devs are so enthused with it. https://news.itsfoss.com/linux-kernel-rust/ #TechFreedom #Mozilla #Rust #Linux #kernel #comingsoon #distromonday https://mega.nz/file/gVmbbK#J8WGqmh88gHCPb67foPPJfKXVAFjq-2dgekNlj6mWh4
