Rust's 2019 Roadmap

I don't know a bunch about it, but Azure IoT Edge (by Microsoft, as you'd expect) has a significant amount of Rust. I'm not sure if it's something that's directly comparable, but is at least somewhat similar.

Yet they decided to go with C for Azure Sphere, in spite of the whole security history they are trying to sell around it.

The pearl is the typical set of recomendations of how good C developers are expected to write unsafe secure code.

When you read the marketing materials of Azure Sphere, it is all about security everywhere.

Another proof that while we need safer languages, we also need to improve C's security story, as this will keep on happening anyway.
