I completed the second edition years ago and found it illuminating. It's very well done! The explanations pertaining to OS dev are nice but it was also a useful artifact for learning more Rust after having gone through the Rust book. The author had a good grasp of the idiom of the language, so seeing how he expressed certain things in code vis a vis how I would have done was educational. The blog's explanation of how futures are implemented in Rust was especially a highlight[0], and I think it's the best I've seen on that topic anywhere. I hope Phil will find the inspiration to come back and work on the EFI-based third edition again. AFAICT, (based on commits to the git branches) that has stalled. I was a GitHub sponsor for about a year until my CC expired and was always bummed to see it left out of the "This Month In Rust OSDev" posts. Anyway, the second edition is still a great way to spend a weekend's dev time and I appreciate all the hard work that clearly went into it. Thanks Phil!
