The file system is an area where Rust can make a lot of sense, similar for network drivers. Points of interaction with underlying hardware and external systems where well defined controls are all the more important and widely interacted with.
I would be surprised, if within a decade a lot of the use of OpenSSL isn't displaced with rustls across a lot of applications even if not written in Rust directly.
Using telepathy to explain someone’s unstated intention to undermine some programming language’s use in the kernel with this House of Cards plotline makes you look insane btw.
Rust is a joke, it's a complete waste of time and effort to try and use it. It's the EU cookie law of native code - well-intentioned nonsense that doesn't work at all in reality
What do you mean? Rust does not exist? No useful projects have been built in it?
