    What’s up with the Rust hate?

    The Rust community keeps trying to rewrite key pieces of Linux that aren’t broken.

    They probably have the right idea, in the long run, but it’s still fun to give them a hard time about it.

      I think the real issue isn’t the rewrites, it’s the fact that Ubuntu started using the new Rust coreutils even though they weren’t ready for production yet. uutils hasn’t even reached version 1.0 yet, and still fails some compatibility tests.
