[β] TootSweet@lemmy.world 72 points 2 years ago (5 children) Right? It's in the kernel and everything now. Linus likes it. Linus hates everything. HOW MUCH ARE THEY PAYING HIM? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 10 child comments replies: [β] wander1236@sh.itjust.works 43 points 2 years ago (1 child) Big Rust has gotten to Linus permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [β] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 5 points 2 years ago Not the L man! permalink fedilink source parent [β] Ephera@lemmy.ml 25 points 2 years ago Did he actually say that he likes it? My impression was that it's not his comfort zone, but he recognizes that for the vast majority of young programmers, C is not their comfort zone. And so, if they don't hop on this Rust train, the Linux kernel is going to look like a COBOL project in a not too distant future. It does not happen very often that a programming language capable of implementing kernels gains wide-spread adoption. permalink fedilink source parent [β] brown567@sh.itjust.works 22 points 2 years ago One (1) good programming language is what they paid him XD permalink fedilink source parent [β] AnnaFrankfurter@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 years ago I'm pretty sure Linus dissed on RUST, but then again he disses on everything and everyone. permalink fedilink source parent [β] polyduekes@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago permalink fedilink source parent
