The Rust community doubled its number of users over the past two years -- from two million in the first quarter of 2022 to four million in the first quarter of 2024.
Linus Torvalds talks AI, Rust adoption, and why the Linux kernel is 'the only thing that matters'
Switching to a more modern topic, the introduction of the Rust language into Linux, Torvalds is disappointed that its adoption isn't going faster. "I was expecting updates to be faster, but part of the problem is that old-time kernel developers are used to C and don't know Rust. They're not exactly excited about having to learn a new language that is, in some respects, very different. So there's been some pushback on Rust."
Microsoft is working on integrating Rust, a programming language that emphasizes performance, type safety, and concurrency, into the Windows 11 kernel. According to David Weston, Vice President, Enterprise and OS Security at Microsoft, the company plans to boot Windows 11 with Rust code inside in the near future.

Rust – the Ultimate Programming Language?
What makes a good programming language? Syntax? Compiler? Tools and ecosystem? It is tempting to say “all of that” but in that case, why there are so many different programming languages? All these components are very important but they alone can’t make the language “good”. One of essential things is the purpose — like languages for rapid development, or development of distributed algorithms, or general purpose for high-level and low-level applications, or easy to learn, or safe to use and so on.
Welcome to "100 Exercises To Learn Rust"!
This course will teach you Rust's core concepts, one exercise at a time. You'll learn about Rust's syntax, its type system, its standard library, and its ecosystem.
Compile F# to Rust 🦀 Via Fable
DARPA Wants All C Converted To Rust
After more than two decades of grappling with memory safety issues in C and C++, the software engineering community has reached a consensus. It’s not enough to rely on bug-finding tools. The preferred approach is to use “safe” programming languages that can reject unsafe programs at compile time, thereby preventing the emergence of memory safety issues.
Top Functional Programming Languages to Learn in 2024
Functional programming languages encourage a different approach to solving problems, often leading to cleaner and more predictable code. By focusing on pure functions, avoiding side effects, and utilizing higher-order functions, functional programming can improve code quality and reduce bugs. Additionally, these languages are well-suited for concurrent and parallel programming, making them valuable in modern, high-performance computing environments.
