- cies 8y agoSo MSFT uses Rust. :) That's actually quite a newsworthy thing, could be a lot more newsworthy if we knew the purpose it was used for was some mission critical component that also needs to be blazing fast. Looking at Rust's strengths, and that MSFT has languages/compilers of it's own, the use case is prolly "mission critical component that also needs to be blazing fast". But for now we're guessing.
- Ygg2 8y agoMSFT used `ripgrep` for Visual Studio Code IIRC.
- pjmlp 8y agoOracle also uses it, and they changed the Java ONE conference to be Oracle Code ONE conference, including Go and Rust related talks.
- steveklabnik 8y agoThis is very cool! I’d seen their open source work but not seen this.
- pjmlp 8y agoHere is the announcement. https://www.oracle.com/code-one/index.html https://www.oracle.com/code-one/index.html https://blogs.oracle.com/developers/javaone-event-expands-with-more-tracks-languages-and-communities-and-new-name https://blogs.oracle.com/developers/javaone-event-expands-wi... > Oracle Code One is the most inclusive developer conference on the planet. Join discussions on Java, Go, Rust, Python, JavaScript, SQL, R, and more.
- cies 8y agoI've learned to hold my cheering whenever I read Oracle and open source in close proximity.
- steveklabnik 8y agoI hear you. At the same time, the particular project they're doing is an implementation of an open standard, to provide an alternative and prevent monoculture, so seems good to me. I'm not involved in the container space, so I can't speak to the quality, but that's what it looks like from here.
