Rust is the New C

THE 70s MUST HAVE BEEN A WILD TIME TO BE ALIVE, right? I often daydream about the lives of people who picked up C just at this perfect time, right at the start. After they learned this relatively small language, they could then have spent DECADES writing JUST C, one language for all programs, on all devices. I wonder if you can see where I'm going with this? ❤️ If you would like to support what I do, I have set up a patreon here: https://www.patreon.com/noboilerplate - Thank you! 📄 All my videos are built in compile-checked markdown, transcript sourcecode available here https://github.com/0atman/noboilerplate this is also where you'll find links to everything mentioned. 🖊️ Corrections are in the pinned ERRATA comment. 👕 Bad shirts available here https://noboilerplate.dashery.com/ 🦀 Start your Rust journey here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2hXNd6x9sZs 🙏🏻 CREDITS & PROMO My name is Tris Oaten and I produce fast, technical videos.
