The Rust Implementation Of GNU Coreutils Is Becoming Remarkably Robust

- Do most folks have Automatic Updates turned on?

auto update notifier & gui for non-tech users?
The most I've heard of is the Pop! OS system updater (https://github.com/pop-os/system-updater) does support updating nix packages (see https://github.com/pop-os/system-updater/blob/master/daemon/src/package_managers/nix.rs). It would probably need some modification to work on NixOS though. Other than that I don't think any graphical package managers are being maintained, although I've been meaning to dive in and make one once I finish the first release of my configuration editor

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.

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.

[Media] My Rust OS for microcontrollers now has a dir command
There is already a rust implementation of coreutiils that uses a single binary like BusyBox or toybox. https://github.com/uutils/coreutils

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?
