> we're not talking about researches from Google or Microsoft It's an important part of the picture. If the big boys are telling you it's not all hype and there's merit that can help OSS projects, kernels and drivers included, it could and should be used to reduce tension because shouting at people "You'll never force us to use Rust!" is not a mature thing to do (and it's present in a clip somebody linked in this thread). If we can just discuss on merits, things will improve hugely. As it is though, people are being people and prefer to attack others based on emotions, yourself included, as illustrated here: > I remember your nickname from some quite biased past comments on this Rust topic. Even in your recent history one can find downvoted sarcastic comments about Rust vs. C++ and now you want to be objective and want to discuss nuance. This was one recent comment. One. You, my friend, are cherry-picking in an attempt to discredit me. Go and count my downvoted comments, I'll wait. We both know what you'll come back with. I always wanted to discuss objectively and with nuance. Does not stop me being sarcastic sometimes, sue me. :) I am surely showing more willingness to discuss than you however. Good enough for me.
