Rust just hit the TIOBE top 10 for the first time — and it's not just hype.
The Linux kernel is pushing ~13 CVEs/day, and Greg Kroah-Hartman publicly defended adopting Rust in the kernel specifically for memory safety. Three recent LPEs (CopyFail, Dirty Frag, Fragnesia) were all discovered by AI-assisted tooling within weeks of each other.
