Microsoft is rewriting all of Windows in Rust and is going to begin to force hardware vendors to do the same. What a fucking clown world. Technology is over. This affects more than just Windows. It'll affect Linux drivers as well that hardware vendors provide. It's pretty much over for computing at this point. Rust is a cancer that has spread and we're now terminal.

>>106518726 (OP)
And yet they still don't have a way to make GUIs for Windows in it.

based freetardtroons now we won't be able to jailbreak or sideload anything so we can be even safer

This is great, because this will kill Rust.

two more weeks

Do you know WHY drastic measures like this had to be taken? Because cniles just could NOT stop writing vulnerable code. 60 years of the language and its subsets and they still couldn't figure it out, so something had to change and it's clear the cnile engineers weren't getting any better. Literally reaping what they sowed.

I personally, as a developer (17 years running C# C++ WebShit), wouldn't touch this abysimally stupid language, but I'm happy there are people masochistic (or untallented) enough to do it.

In the end, the user will lose a few milliseconds of performance but gain (potentially) security, so basically a win for the consoomer.

>>106518726 (OP)
No, i'm terminal.

I cannot wait for Microsoft's corporate rust. Then they can dump all the troons and weird clingers.

>>106518726 (OP)
Realistically, how do we fight this push for Rust? Is Mark Russinovich puppeteering the troons or are they controlling him?

Ay yo, bro like... yo. seriously. <skull emoji>

Microsoft already adopted rust like 3 or 4 years ago and it's used in the kernel already. Nothing changed. It's not like the Linux kernel where corporations end up dictating the project. I don't think Microshit contributes back to Rust at all.

>>106519585
it's strange they wrote an entire c++ compiler so they don't have to touch gcc/clang and yet they use rust just like that?

>>106519455
You guys ever thought that maybe it's gaining adoption cause it's actually good?

>>106519642
>gaining adoption
It's gaining shills. I've never seen a language pushed so hard, and I don't think it's very good.

>>106519663
So you got filtered, that's good to know

>>106519615
I assume you're talking about visual c++? That existed well before Rust was even an infant. Plus it likely was more so to give developers better integration into .NET (along with visual C#, VB, F#) Supposedly parts of Windows has also been in C# for awhile now.

>>106519685
Look at the way you speak about it, you're in a cult. There's still time to run it's not, "unsafe" even though that's what they tell you.

>>106519686
Visual C++ was made for white men. Microsoft chose a different direction, so I suppose they need whatever guardrails and automated tools they can get to extract some usefulness out of the jeets.

>>106519706
clang is better

the funny part is OP is not even a troon, just an emotional little low-test male with zero arguments against Rust

>>106518726 (OP)
damn. soon we'll need 7ghz 12 core cpus with v-cache to even use a web browser without lagging

>>106519082
has nothing to do with c and everything to do with the incredible servings of ancient spaghetti layers and reliance on third party kernel mode drivers. rust will not fix the bluescreens, you can make equally dumb mistakes in rust, pajeet vibe code kernel drivers written in rust, will simply be a new age of horrors, the like the world has never seen, far more terrible than 90s spaghetti.

>>106519615
the microsoft compiler is very old. predates clang by more than a decade, and gcc wasnt very good back then.

someone will probably leak shit

>>106520052
You won't come around web services with bigger projects

Give it 2 years and we'll have Microsoft Visual Rust ++

>>106521885
Just so you're aware the ++ in Microsoft Visual C++ stands for `C++`, not `C` ++. They are two distinct languages. Hence why Microsoft's F# and C# are called Microsoft Visual C# and Microsoft Visual F#, not Microsoft Visual C# ++ and Microsoft Visual F# ++

>>106518726 (OP)
I never had a crash on Windows 7. The bluescreens began on Windows 8.

>>106521920
Yeah but Rust++ is ugly so I added a space.

>>106518726 (OP)
b-based........ maybe we'll have GPU drivers that won't crash or Windows Kernel Modules (antivirus) that won't crash msedge.exe

>>106519706
>Visual C++ was made for white men
explains why it's so shit.

>>106520053
to be fair, Rust being less shit helps filter it.

>>106518726 (OP)
>force hardware vendors to do the same.
not going to happen
>>So, they started rewriting chunks in Rust. Not the whole thing; just pieces.
>>"Here’s the thing that actually matters: When a security researcher found a bug in the new Rust version, it crashed the system instead of letting an attacker take over, Russinovich said."
>here's the thing
even microsoft is clearly struggling to promote this unworkable nonsense. crashing crucial parts of your system is remarkably comical
>>106520053
the article is written by someone that obviously doesn't use windows and can't seen to connect crashing crucial parts of the OS to kill screens. microsoft clearly states they will just crash various operating system files as a solution rather than a fix.

>>106518726 (OP)
Rust means only trannies will be willing to touch and maintain the code

>>106519642
yes bro, everything pushed and forced by mainstream media and corporations is actually good for us! please kill yourself

everytime the topic of "code safety" is brought up its always some bullshit exploit in an obscure kernal driver that requires physical hardware access. its every single time. i sit reading cves and its all obscure bullshit that could never be exploited in the real world, im 99.9% certain its all a corporate resume padding sham

>>106522538
damn, wrong thread

>>106522402
this guy gets it.

there's 2 major aspects pushing rush. the corporations who want control over it and are the "founders" trying to create a new ecosystem they control with licensing and standards. how is a 60 year old common language that's used everywhere going to make them profit? it's not. introducing a new standard they control does and it'll even allow them to kill competition later if they succeed(they won't).

the second aspect is all the scums who just want to try and paid their resume. they don't have 30 years experience with c so they want to level the field by saying they've got 5 years experience with rust. they want to rewrite what's already written so they can take credit for it since rewriting it easier than being the actual creator. they're a lot of vermin who exist to try and co-opt and subvert/take credit for others work.

the tranny aspect is the later. they're a lot of narcissist with nasty female natures which is why they love to do the subversive stuff. the jew aspect is the former involving trying to back in backdoors and get control of the market.

like usual the worst scums are in sync working against everybody else.

>>106518726 (OP)
Windows development ended 10 years ago. Some boomer may argue even 20 years ago it was over.

>>106519642
Its gaining adoption because you can take most of the giant pile of depenencies in any Rust project, change them, and make them proprietary and malicious without telling anyone. You can even open source the key thing you wrote but it'll never compile without the proprietary dependency you can have no obligation to release.
