It's a fun Rust thing. People stand up websites to expose a high level view of Rust's ability to fit the needs of a given field and to inspire and encourage faster work. - https://areweasyncyet.rs/ https://areweasyncyet.rs/ - https://www.areweguiyet.com/ https://www.areweguiyet.com/ - https://areweideyet.com/ https://areweideyet.com/ - https://www.arewewebyet.org/ https://www.arewewebyet.org/ A whole list: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Areweyet https://wiki.mozilla.org/Areweyet

  There used to be arewefastyet.rs, to measure the speed of the compiler. But I didn't renew the domain. It's at https://arewefastyet.pages.dev https://arewefastyet.pages.dev now.

      The FAQ I wrote answers the question - "What does this website show that perf.rust-lang.org doesn't?" - perf.rust-lang.org is great for monitoring for regressions on a day to day basis, perfect for compiler devs. But arewefastyet.rs aims to answer other questions, like - How much rustc has improved on certain workloads over a long time period. - How rustc performance is affected by different hardware. 8 cores is better than 4, all other things being equal, but how much more? On which workloads? - How much time in seconds it actually takes to compile common crates. Concerns about developer productivity could be allayed by seeing the number of seconds it takes to compile a complex binary like ripgrep.

  More like a Mozilla thing that got adopted by Rust.

From HN, sure. But I bet most people who peruse the `rs` top-domain are Serbs and Rustaceans.

  For some reason I keep coming across some Brazilian websites with .rs as well, but not sure why.

      To be very pedantic: Brazil's currency is "Real", plural "Reais". There was around a century ago an older Brazilian currency also called "Real", but with plural "Réis".

    Maybe its because of people from the state of Rio Grande do Sul[1] - commonly shortened to RS 1 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rio_Grande_do_Sul https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rio_Grande_do_Sul

I didn't even connect the domain to game development at all until I followed the link. I interpreted "game" as slang, as in "are we ready for the big time yet?" My cultural bias is showing.
