I feel like Rust is everywhere and nowhere at the same time; how do they do it?

  "They" is just a lot of software engineers who really really like it and want to be using it, but can't use it in their day job, so continue to talk and talk and talk about it in the hopes that it's used more. I'm one of them (not using it currently, want to use it).

    Indeed, for example, one day Rust will be part of the default VS install, and then I can justify having native components for .NET stuff written in Rust, until then C++ will have to do. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/dev-environment/rust/rust-for-windows https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/dev-environment/rus...

  MLM, effectively. The hype machine is pushing it into some places it is far from mature enough for. The hype depends more upon bad-mouthing other technologies than its merits can justify. This is not to discount actual merits, or to doubt the needed maturity will come, in time. And, embedded is certainly a place it is already mature enough for.
