Rust on Linux will happen. One way or another. At the worst, one funeral at a time. I wouldn’t sweat it.
I remember a HN comment that I really liked and can’t find now that went something like:
You know what stopped me from programming? It wasn’t that I didn’t have a good computer. It wasn’t that I started later than all the other kids. It wasn’t that I had to work. Nothing. Nothing stopped me from programming.
There’ll always be folks like that. And I hope I’ll be like that for some thing too!
