what do you understand as 'systems programming'? there are people making operating systems for AMD64 in Pascal etc.... so there's plenty of choices, odd and even ones. some examples of different interpretations of 'syste

what will happen if it was? some kind of end of the universe event? i really dont think its such a big deal. If you enjoy blogging, then enjoy it. Maybe its an excuse, AI, for something that was already in the making.

It's really all opinions what is better or worse, but i do respect the sentiment that there is some boundary, and on one side of the boundary, Rust makes a lot of sense, and the other side, Rust does not work at all. (managing global m
