Mainframes still power far more (and more critical) infrastructure than you would expect.

Mainframes still power far more (and more critical) infrastructure than you would expect.
- dralley 5y ago(But, to be fair - s360 is quite dead at this point, and Rust supports s390x fine, even if not as a tier-1 platform. Anyone who claims that C compilers support every platform equally is a liar anyway, Rust just makes the support tiers explicit).
- mlindner 5y agoSure they do, but those are places where new development is not happening, only sustaining. Rust wouldn't go into those places even if it did support those hardware.
