Bryan Cantrill on Rust and the Future of Low-Latency Systems

From the video

- Moore's law is dead

- Wright's law means the cost of computing will keep decreasing

- Computing will go into many more devices and places where it hasn't been

- edge computing on small computers that supplement the main compute requires new OS ideas

- Rust is better than C for these small edge computers because it doesn't require std lib

Why Cantrill believes the future of low-latency systems will include Rust programs in some surprising places.
