Let me take that back What I meant to say is, knowing what's coming, there is no reason to switch to different programing language. They will all run at "almost" the same speed as WASM bytecode.
Sure if you want to re-write the OS in Rust, then that might be a project you want to take on. It won't be any safer or bug free.
Whatever you do, never ask Linus why Linux is coded in C and not C++ :-D
Points all well taken, but I want to code drivers! And compilers, and kernels. If I could do so in Rust, I'd be much happier than in C or C++.
There are many, many types of programming.
Right with you there. WASM is a game changer. I'm just not sure that makes Rust a waste of time...maybe even the opposite.
