Microsoft Adopts Rust AGAIN For This Major App? 

Started learning Rust, No regrets 🦀

I've been working in Rust for a year now. No language has better ergonomics or tooling than Rust, and you will not regret the effort you put in to learning it!

I started with rust 6 months ago and I wont be stopping anytime soon. I learned to code in c++ but till recently I did all my work in JS. Having the c++ background made learning rust a lot easier and learning rust probably also made me a better c++ programmer. I didn't have the confidence to use c++ in production but Rust has given me the confidence to tap into the benefits of using a general lower level languages and really level up my skills. But anybody that says c++ is deprecated doesn't know what their talking about xD

Rust on Windows, as well as the Linux Kernel, is highly recommended to master

I think even bigger selling point, I had with rust is that it is really nice to work with than most other languages.

Yes, I hear there’s a supply chain problem making spare time hard to come by. I can’t find any for sale anywhere.

Guess it's time to finally crack open a Rust book...

Most non-greenfield Rust projects of this nature require interop with C or C++ code meaning you need to know both Rust and C++ to be effective at those jobs. So sure learn Rust but don't forget to also learn C/C++ to understand and interop with it. Languages are just tools, not religions.

Cool, but can they get spell check working on MS Teams?

What about Q#? I wonder how Q# is going to affect the development of OSs.

That's awesome! I'm so excited that Rust is making its way into key products like this! Eventually I'd love to convince my team to use Rust, and stuff like this helps

3:40 They are saying they are moving away from C/C++ but the job ad suggest they are moving away from C# ?

So will rust replace C\C++ and i am in learning c should i stop and start rust any advice

Rust has a higher-than-average barrier to entry and generally requires a higher-than-average developer knowledge. Plus the fact that it's not necessarily a mature language and has use cases that are better supported than others. All this to say Rust should be used when necessary, but sparingly. Where another language like Go is more appropriate, it should be used. In short, Rust is not the end all, be all.

I just started learning c/c++ will program with it for at least 2 years before I pick up something with as steep a learning curve. At this moment I do everything in either python/JS. I like the high level langauges.

I’ve hated on Rust for years now. However… this is a signal that would change my mind. I’m also an old man when it comes to new languages. Until there are real time jobs demanding those frameworks or languages, I usually ignore them. This is cool to hear

I’m currently on chapter 7 of The Rust Programming Language book. It’s well worth the time to read. I have some exposure to Java, C, and C++. Of the three I like C++ the most and Java the least. As I’ve been learning Rust I get the impression that hard lessons learned from other languages were deeply considered. The result is a very clever language that makes me feel more confident and eager to learn more. The future of programming will certainly include a prominent place for Rust. No doubt.

"You are PARTIALLY right at 5:17 when you said, "In my opinion no one should be looking anywhere else to learn Rust before working one - maybe two - times through the Rust book. There's really no shortcut; it's all there in the book." Yes, if you already know how to code in some language, then you should look to the Rust book to start learning Rust. However, trainers are massively overlooking a lucrative opportunity that (so far) no one is serving well at all: universities. Rust is not too hard to learn for a first language, and many universities would be teaching it as a first language if they had decent materials to teach with. Before you criticize, I work in IT at a major university, and we recognize the emergence and importance of Rust. We also think it's dumb to require students to learn another language so they can throw it away and then learn Rust. Moving through Rust slowly and intelligently, universities could be graduating people with Rust proficiencies. The person who creates a great Rust-as-a-first-language curriculum will enjoy steady revenue semester after semester for a very long time.

Why is run bad for building user interfaces ?

Interesting to see Microsoft concerned about memory usage.

So do we still need to learn C/C++ before learning Rust?

Rust is a strange and wonderful language. It often makes my head sore, but always makes my heart soar.

They really need to add rust to Visual Studio

Its done

rust is the best language i have learned in a long time.. 2 years in now and i love it !

Rust is inevitable it seems, message received.

I am near the end of my PhD in mechanical engineering and I want to pivot into software development after that. I want to learn Rust but there is no Rust job in my country. There are C++ jobs but it feels like investing my time learning C++ is the wrong move for the future.

Slogans with "Rust on product XY" or "Rusted XY" to promote will be a nightmare in the reception of every average PR or marketing division. - So bring them on! 😅 "See our new XY! Now even with Rust" "Now thoroughly Rusted to meet your expectations for safety!"

it will be cool if they start writing the ui in rust and not c# xD

What do you think about learning Rust as a beginner? Do you think it’s better to have some backend experience first?

What about Zig?

Once polonius becomes stable and intergrated into the language it’ll make rust even easier to learn. Look it up.

This is so much fun. Let's Rust away.

im a huge rust fan

The shortcut for learning Rust is examples and screwing around.

Telling juniors to go learn Rust now lol good luck..

and crabs are so cool too 🦀

Late to the party, but I'm gonna throw my hat in this discussion as an ML engineer. In ML, I've been noticing a pattern. The researchers who try to profit from prototypes make python ML pipelines, only for their promises not to materialize. The engineers using Rust to build ML stuff end up accidentally making real slick production-ready products, but don't know how to profit from it. It's a hilarious paradox I hope someone reading this can resolve. Build products with Rust with profit in mind, and you'll eat the ML industries lunch every day. They wouldn't know what hit them.

This is probably going to lead to lots of Rust adoption; but will it reduce the size of Windows at runtime?

Rust is the new C

first comment by surafel i like your videos they are informative!!!

So when are MS, Nintendo and Sony going to rewrite their game dev eco-systems to support Rust? It's going to take a decade from the point these companies start making that move to get the Games Industry up to speed (rewriting tools, pipelines and engines).

But there are no jobs for rust without experience....

Me caveman! Me no like rust! Me use pure c and Python anyday.

So C# really sucks that bad?

Finally jesus christ took ehm long enuff

i think rust is maybe a little overrated

0:28 microsoft dev uses keynote instead of powerpoint

Rust is overly complicated. It's nice for a systems language, but day to day language I don't care for it. I like V as it is simple and straight forward and has all the constructs I need. It's still early on though.

This further strengthens my resolve to not learn Rust.

2028, they will jumping on the latest fad again. Why not make existing languages memory safe?

So Zig lost the battle already?
