alt Hacker NewsAfter the current onslaught of 0 days on linux and other C projects combined with the new incredible ability to convert codebases to another language I think we will start to see this actually happen.
I'm not saying we blindly vibe convert Linux to Rust, but I think it could be a valid idea to start converting small parts and carefully auditing them.

I've been a Swift/Obj-C engineer for my whole 15 year career. I now have all these odd jobs I have going on Raspberry Pis around my house that LLMs have written in Python. I'm now having them convert some of them to Rust and I am astonished on how fewer resources are used.
