I am new to programing (well new in the sense that I have been doing it sparsely for years) and only have written code for microcontrollers, is rust a good replacement for C in that domain? I don't know much about other languages, but

I get where you are coming from, and I stand with what you say, but this is a losing battle. It's cheaper to only have 1 person watching to make sure everyone scans into the the store. Really there is no need to elaborate beyond that p

Lucky for you India is one of Googles favorite markets. They put a lot of effort into accommodating Indian users because of the massive untapped market. It's no surprise that it works well with an Indian accent. The most common accent
