Object-Oriented Entity-Component-System Design
Personal anecdote: Habitat was developed as a sort of application deployment / configuration management tool in Rust, and the architecture there is roughly equivalent to an ECS. I found it a joy to work with and work on. Not sure if it's fundamentally a better software pattern, but it at least meshes with my brain better than how most OO-style software is laid out.

Cross-platform Rust rewrite of the GNU coreutils
Not that it should represent the rubicon of when to/not to rewrite code, but when you do, you do trade one set of bugs for a new set of bugs: https://github.com/uutils/coreutils/issues

The First Stable Release of a Rust-Rewrite Sudo Implementation
Would be interesting to see a a Debian derivative that combines this with the Rust Implementation Of GNU Coreutils.[1] Could be a big win for memory safety and performance.
- New Version of the Rust Coreutils
- best software for linux

Looking for a small boring rust project to help my learning.
uutils /coreutils is also a great project. It has many contributors, and it also is a great resource to learn.

I have years of experience in vulnerability analysis including several 0-day discovery, and this bug [buffer overflow] seems totally safe.
Already did it. Checkmate, as i believe your people say.

Rust is ugly, doesn’t even let you write simple data structures, unsafe rust is not even defined, makes the simplest things so hard to write and did I mention it’s ugly?
Ah yes, std, that famous crate that is unusable for systems programming. God forbid anyone do any "systems" programming that uses std.
What are some alternatives?
