Rust heads into the kernel?
A pet peeve of mine is the almost complete lack of empiricism in Computer Science. &quot;Nevertheless, we believe that, even today, the advantages of using Rust [in the Linux kernel] outweighs the cost.&quot; Where is the evidence?<p>&quot;Rust is <i>obviously</i> a better choice for Linux than C.&quot; &quot;Ok, if it is obvious, it should be easy to demonstrate?&quot; This is not only about Rust - 99% or so of all new tech can&#x27;t demonstrate any benefits.
