Rust 1.66
Speaking of cargo remove, see also cargo-edit [0] from which adding and removing originally came, as well as cargo-binstall [1] which installs binaries rather than compiling from source every time. The binaries are updatable with cargo-update [2].
The latter two can replace a package manager for Rust related utilities, as I often find that those in OS package repositories are often not as up to date as directly from cargo.

`cargo audit` can now scan compiled binaries
Would be nice if this worked with cargo-update somehow.

Hey Rustaceans! Got a question? Ask here! (26/2022)!
There is cargo install-update plugin: https://github.com/nabijaczleweli/cargo-update

go-global-update - the missing command for updating globally installed go executables
I didn't find any command or package to update those packages, and given that npm has npm -g update and cargo has cargo install-update, I decided to create go-global-update for go.
- cargo-update - A cargo subcommand for checking and applying updates to installed executables

I just realised Monday is now my favourite day of the week, because in my timezone it’s the day new rust-analyzer releases come out!
rust-analyzer isn't a rust component (like rust-src, etc. which will update with rustup update), nor a cargo binary (where you could use cargo install-update - https://github.com/nabijaczleweli/cargo-update ).

Git-cliff: generate changelog files from the Git history
I initially was interested in Rust because of performance + speed + safety, but now I have to say that cargo is a big selling point for me.
I always used to be scared of compiling software myself because I never seemed to be able to get it to work without endless headaches. Now, I generally find it easy to compile Rust programs if they aren't in my package manager, and with cargo install-update https://github.com/nabijaczleweli/cargo-update I find it easy to keep the software up to date. I have higher confidence that I can get hobbyist Rust software working, and the more Rust software I use, the more familiar I am with the ecosystem and the more comfortable I am.
If this was written in some obscure language I wasn't familiar with, I'd be less confident I would be able to run it at all, let alone keep it updated, and I may not bother even trying to install it.

DoorDash: Migrating From Python to Kotlin for Our Backend Services
So while it may take a while for some, it's already absolutely fine for me to compile my projects in a few seconds or a minute. I install all my related tooling via cargo install and update it via cargo install-update -a ( https://github.com/nabijaczleweli/cargo-update ) so I frequently/daily build different Rust projects and I'm quite ok with the compilation times.

Rust Tooling: 8 tools that will increase your productivity
cargo-audit is a simple Cargo tool for detecting vulnerable Rust crates. You can install it with cargo install cargo-audit, use cargo audit and you’re done! Any vulnerable crates will appear below, like so:
-
Rust Offline?
Further we use cargo-auditable and cargo-audit as part of both our pipeline and regular scanning of all deployed services. This makes our InfoSec and Legal super happy since it means they can also monitor compliance with licenses and patch/update timings.

A CVE has been issued for hyper. Denial of Service possible
PSA: before filing CVEs for other people's projects, file an issue with https://rustsec.org instead

Should atomics be unsafe?
Historically, such serious bugs get communicated broadly and addressed very quickly via security advisory blog posts and on https://rustsec.org.
-
Rust from a security perspective, where is it vulnerable?
For known vulnerabilities we have the rustsec vulnerability database. You could have a look over there for inspiration. There's also the related cargo-audit for checking dependencies for known vulnerabilities.

capnproto-rust: out-of-bound memory access bug
Would be cool if this was also reported to https://rustsec.org/ that way cargo audit could pick up and alert the users about it.

`cargo audit` can now scan compiled binaries
P.S. I also made scanning binaries 5x faster in the latest release of cargo audit.
