This is the first time I have heard about that story. This is so strange and unbelievable, and yet very familiar. It sounds like something out of Swift between the Big Endians and the Little Endians. Thanks for bringing it up.

I do agree with you, and I hope this is the future. However, in big organizations, which are not exactly nimble, this is even hard to say, "Okay we've been developing in C++ for 20 years, now the next part of our infrastructure wi

Rust is promising but C++ is here to stay. If you have a legacy C++ code base, it is much easier to sell that you are just upgrading the compiler to get new language features, that you are rewriting everything from scratch. Now we'll h

I am curious there is no mention of German fluency (or lack of). So I don't know what is the underlying assumption: A. Everyone is speaking English so it is a non issue. B. I am fluent in German so it is a non issue.

I have a feeling that "Part 2: Making everything Rustic" is more or less equivalent to a rewrite from scratch. A realistic way might be to achieve Part 1, and then extract some part/module you could rewrite more or less indep

IEC62304 requires that for risk management you decompose your sw in modules or units and assess the risk for each one. Roughly a class A module or device even if malfunctioning can not cause harm. For example it could be a logging or debugg

I am also an embedded dev, and I agree heartily with your post. Something that Rust is bringing is sane and safe default. That does not look like a big deal, because you can write C and C++ "the right way". But in the real world,
