But one random afternoon, while debugging a test, I accidentally discovered that Rust had been helping me quietly in the background all along — through features I never learned, never appreciated, and never asked for. And once I did, I realized: Rust’s..." current

We built a distributed counter system where actors communicated through messages and maintained isolated state. Everything worked perfectly because we carefully avoided failures. Real systems don’t have that luxury. Network connections drop. External APIs timeout. Memory runs out. Bugs slip through code review...." current

The Simplicity That Rust Forgot Remember when programming used to feel like… programming? Not like writing a dissertation on ownership semantics? Rust’s compiler is brilliant — borderline psychic — but also feels like that teacher who won’t let you leave the exam hall until you’ve explained why 2 + 2 = 4.

Python is the front door; Rust is the engine room. When a tight loop or data transform becomes your p99 villain, you don’t need a rewrite.

For decades, device drivers have been the most crash-prone, security-sensitive, and soul-draining part of system software.
