I work at AWS and my team is doing all new projects in rust, currently most of the code is in C but we are making the switch

[Mempler]

I actually got a junior rust development job and today was my first day! It's also my first job and I got no CS degree, internships or any other job experience :D

I dont even have a highschool degree. Its like a dream come true

Embedded SW Engineer at Philips, Hospital Patient Monitors here. We're also big rustaceans over here as well =) Though a great portion of the code is C++, we're free to do all sorts of tooling in Rust and we'd like to insert it in systems where we're able as well. I'd say a still significant barrier is simply that not enough people know Rust. It's still more convenient for many corporations to just stick with C++ due to availabilty of programmers... yet. Also there are still some rough edges with some edge-cases of integration for cross-compiled systems (Yocto, for example), but I for sure have high hopes for it

Thank you so much for the feature, @letsgetrusty! We love Rust for many reasons - especially its performance, safety, and concurrency. The ecosystem and community are also fantastic! Thanks again, Let’s Get Rusty!

I’m a senior rust dev and support a fortune 200 company.

We’re using rust to optimize payment infrastructure and cloud services.

I work at a fintech company, in the financial processor sector. We built the entire processor in Rust, and are slowly starting to support more card brands, and open our processor to other companies that need one and don't wanna build it in-house

[cristianochieppa]

I’m using Rust: a client of mine has decided to switch the backend (Industry, automation) from c++ to Rust. Very happy about the results and performance.

[NuflynMagister]

Дякую Богдане! I use RUST for scientific computing in the fields of chemical thermodynamics, combustion modeling, chemical kinetics modeling and so on. Hope it will be more popular in scientific computing. It is far more pleasant and satisfing to write physical and chemical problems on RUST than on cpp!

Rust is a good language that makes learning other languages look like toys. Rust by Example is a very good material and with a detailed explanation. My only problem is Job opportunities for some of us that live outside of the US. For instance, I live in Nigeria so, it is either I am using Rust for a personal DIY projects or nothing. I am eager to find a Remote Rust Job to challenge my skills.

[fernandohsgoncalves]

Hello from Brazil! We are using rust for all kinds of backend developments at will bank, which is a fintech startup, with millions of clients

[orhanmadiassani]

I'm currently learning it just for the sake of learning about different types of language than I know (js, php), but if Rust positions open then why not. Great video!

[lordryns]

Started rust a few weeks ago, not because of the jobs or anything.

I just want to get familiar with a systems language since all I've been doing are languages like kotlin, Python and some Golang

0:20 I don't have a Rust job, but I use rust where it makes sense. I work in a small company. We mainly work on some game in Unity. But sometimes I can still use Rust for simple scripts. Or for some side projects.

I don't have that much experience with Rust yet, but compared to languages I used before (Haskell and OCaml mostly) Rust's maintability is debatable. It's true that a static type-checker with a solid type system to work with improves maintanability by orders of magnitude and compared to most mainstream languages Rust type system is nothing short of awesome (not so awesome when compared to Haskell or OCaml, though). That said Rust can be annoyingly inflexible. For example you can't abstract over type of reference you require for your function (mutable vs immutable). Polymorphism becomes challenging as soon as you try to do anything beyond what classes in OOP languages can typically do. On top of this, Rust has macros, and boy, nothing obscures and obfuscates the code like macro abuse.

[mjlmfhj]

I am from the future and rust is being used everywhere baby!

[Turalcar]

10:10 YMMV. I didn't know Rust before my first day in the office. I was hired as a former C++ dev who'd learn Rust on the job.

[Kiyuja]

the thing that kept me from learning low level languages were the infamous pointers. Turns out its really not complex at all. A handful of months ago I chose Rust as my first LLL and I am really happy with it. Sometimes I do encounter a lot of head scratchers like dereferencing for example. This happens because I am "self taught", working in a team as your job will exponentially grow your skill. Problem is you WILL need to be able to write async Rust and I've never written a single async line of Rust and I've heard stories....

[TehStoni]

as a pentester and malware developer, rust was pretty easy to get a poc up and working. took a bit of face rolling to get a dll to work but the ntapi crate makes it super easy to directly call functions. offensive security oriented repositories have tons of samples too, more so than other less common system programming languages like nim or zig. writing malware in rust is going to boom. sure it has its downfalls but i think theres a lot of good things in sight.

[JanneSnow]

Bogdan, new haircut is so good on you. Thanks for the video to keep me motivated on keep coding in Rust, even though I'm ts/python backend developer
