It felt like a code review that would not let me leave the room until the code was right. That lesson cost time and bruised pride.

No garbage collector. No segfaults. Just pure compile-time guarantees. But the deeper people went, the more edges they found. Lifetimes that refused to compile. Borrow errors that looked nonsensical.

But if you’ve ever streamed a 10GB dataset without loading it all into RAM, or accessed GPU registers directly, you’ve probably used it — even if you didn’t know. In most languages, MMIO feels like a hidden performance optimization. In Rust, it feels like a first-class primitive. And that difference is...")
