Thanks!

It's probably inevitable unless we want git to go the way of awk or grep and get replaced with more user friendly, gui-ish things. I'll always be nostalgic for C though. Anything safer than C loses the ability to place your hands in the computer's viscera.

Hope enough people leave their Rust honeymoon in time for it not to oxidize too many important projects.
Love the lack of GC, RAII and aliasing-resistance but the async implementation was a mistake and probably shouldn't exist at all.

I'm not surprised. C (and C++) are mostly made obsolete by Rust. Just a matter of time before most things transition over.

nobody knows if Rust will begin the new C++ so 10 yers from now we will get a new language that want replace Rust :)

C++ replaced C... and C itself replaced other lanages, especially assembly. So yeah, in 10 or 20 years something will probably start replacing Rust too. Nothing wrong with that.

C++ did not replace C IMHO

C didn't entirely replace assembly either. And Rust isn't going to entirely replace C or C++ (or assembly!). But a lot of stuff that would have been written in C, got written in C++ instead, which is close enough for this discussion.
