I don't believe it'll have "lasting" effect on rust, but I think it rather shows what rust maintainers will do, if put into a similar situation again.

I think a lot more important for understanding crypto is learning the first bitcoin was minted in January 2009, months off of the heel of the Lehman Brothers filing for bankruptcy, and more notably the "start" of the 2008 financial crisis

Unfortunately, I really doubt long rust's "forever" will last in the wake of the `time` crate controversy. I can't see like a lot of good options in that place from the perspectives of the rust-std maintainers, but it might've just been worth it to wait for a new edition or similar.

"Telly" [1] is a real 55" TV that is available for free. It is designed to always, constantly be running advertisements.

To reserve a Telly, you must agree to use the device as the main TV in your home, constantly keep it connected to the internet, and regularly watch it. If the company finds that you violate these rules, Telly will ask you to return the TV (and charge a $1,000 fee if you don’t send it back).

A Note on Fil-C 9 months ago

I think transpiling to C is probably the least interesting way to tap into C. FFI is a lot valuable (and doable).
