DIY hot sauces are fine for kids and enthusiastic amateurs, but it's past time for major, open-source hot sauces to be produced with a memory-safe language like Rust.

Wouldn't the entire sauce have to be labeled unsafe, thus rendering the advantages of Rust moot?

  As long as the hot sauce isn't strong enough to induce amnesia, it should be memory-safe. At worst you might panic.

Jokes aside - but there is so much knowledge out there made by passionate geeks that it begs to be gathered together. On any topic. And eventually kill the "lifehacks" videos with real stuff. Fermentation of hot peppers, photography, homemade shawarma, woodworking, burn barrels, how to roll cords without tangling, bitters with soda when too full. All of those I looked up in the last month for one reason or another. And on some I improved but there is no organized way to give back the knowledge.

  > bitters with soda when too full Can you expand upon this? How does mixing bitters with soda help with being too full?

    Bitters were digestives before they become cocktail flavoring, by soda I mean club soda aka carbonated water. You just need a ordwr of magnitude more bitters than go in a cocktails - like a teaspoon to tablespoon. If you feel bloated after a meal - a glass of this really helps.

If you're not running your hot sauces in containers, I don't even want to talk to you.

  What do you use to orchestrate your containers though?

  Sadly, if the containers are wet, they tend to get rusty. If not, they get hot.

Out here, we use ChilliLang. Despite the name, it's the latest hot language. And we use Python for pickling.
