Monogon: A Linux userland in pure Go
It looks similar to u-root https://github.com/u-root/u-root, yes, used as part of host firmware. There's a description of u-root in chapter 6 of https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-1-4842-7939-7, too.

Writing an init with Go (part 1)
Great material! This approach is also used in u-root - Golang busybox created for LinuxBoot. I really enjoy working with it so far!

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

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.
