From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

They auto download binaries, even proprietary ones, unsigned and without user interaction.
YEAH security!
Quoting the guy:
"that rewriting those in Rust will take an eternity, so not sure what is actionable here, hence closing."
That's Rust shining from all its glories here gentlemen...
The best language, if there is nothing changing.
That's a thing to make a web server or a library that displays Fibonacci, that's something else when there are humans with changing scopes...
I use rust only if we need performance, for small services. The industry does the same. People use node for backend but e.g. redis is in rust. It's a good tool if you use it for the right stuff.
EDIT: redis is not in rust, but e.g. aws writes many services in rust
Wtf are you talking about? Redis is in C....
yeah I'm a fucking idiot because I thought wrongly the redis' language...
You're not an idiot, you just misremembered. It happens
