Is it time to retire C and C++ for Rust in new programs?

• win32metadata

  27 1,280 0.0 C++

  Tooling to generate metadata for Win32 APIs in the Windows SDK.

  

There is still the occasional incredibly subtle link time fuckery in Rust.

"Minor" semver updates to crates breaking things via e.g. unexpected MSRV bumps is pretty common too, with some resulting bitrot. That said, I agree with you that things in Rust are at least better. Imperfect, but better.

• Ada_Kernel_Module_Framework

  1 27 10.0 Ada

  Framework for writing Linux kernel modules in Ada

Ada offers security and simplicity and is already part of GCC but also has llvm now. Linux kernel drivers have also been demonstrated.

Perhaps it would be healthier for Rust to have competition?
