What's up with Rust?
summary
Rust removes an entire class of memory safety bugs at compile time and shows measurable wins: Microsoft traces ~70% of Windows security bugs to memory safety, Android finds 0 errors in 1.5M lines of Rust, and companies report production wins like Tencent cutting CPUs and memory by ~90% after replacing Node. Demos cover ownership, borrowing and lifetimes, Option/Result-style error handling, the playground and the rand crate, and explanations of why Rust is no garbage collector and “stack heavy,” yielding lower-latency, deterministic services.
