Surely the C++ surface area will also have increased significantly in the same span of time which means that Rust will still be ahead?
Other than Godbolt Rust also has cargo-show-asm[1] that directly shows the actual assembly. [1]: https://crates.io/crates/cargo-show-asm
It appears to also be called the "abstract machine"[1]. C semantics do not work "directly on the hardware" but instead on an abstract machine that is then converted to the actual hardware. It most often comes up when…

Introducing a new keyword means that all existing code that uses the new keyword as an identifier will break. That's why the `constexpr` keyword is deliberately weird. It's also why they reuse keywords like `using`.

The second option also doesn't result in any big negatives for UMN associated personnel because the kernel devs take on all the work of enforcing stricter scrutiny.
Nobody is an expert on every subject. You could have PhD level knowledge of the theory behind a specific filesystem or allocator but know next to nothing about the underlying hardware.
I've had issues on PopOs 20.04 and 20.10 with microphones connected through the audio jack. Connecting through a cheap jack-to-USB converter eliminated the background noise. There were proposed fixes although none of…
