I dug into it because I was about to upgrade a few boxes myself, and the real story is a lot less scary than the headline. It’s also a much better story if you actually care about where Linux is heading, because the headline buried the genuinely interesting part — stable Rust support landing in the kernel — under a benchmark scare that mostly wasn’t about the kernel at all. https://anooptube.in/blog/post49/ Sat, 15 Aug 2026 19:48:00 +0530 https://anooptube.in/blog/post49/ Every few months someone asks me the same question: “should I learn Rust or just stick with C++?” Lately Go gets thrown into that question too.
