This description of C++ is misleading at best (C++ is used for “Air Travel”?), but saying its used to “make Linux” is just wrong.

    Not, there is very little Rust in the kernel. It’s still WIP and there no real world Rust drivers in the mainline repo yet. It will probably change “soon”, but even then Linux will remain 99% C for the foreseeable future. You can’t just rewrite something like that in Rust.
