I don't know why it's truncating the URL. It stays correct when I post, but is truncated shortly after.

Where you talk about memory management, you say there are two types, manual and gc. But after that you refer to "manual memory management" as just "memory management".

Thanks - Fixed for consistency.

At this time, Rust is the only viable alternative to C and C++ in these domains.

No, it’s not. See Ada/Spark.

Corrected that line. Thanks!

Updated line: > At this time, Rust is one of few viable alternatives to C and C++ in these domains. (Other alternatives include ADA, Spark, and Zig)

Also there is Circuitpython and MicroPython. Probably less ideal for production. But capable enough for those less familiar with programming.
