That's but rust has been a known quantity for 5(?) years at least now?

Changes in the systems development space take a long time to propagate.

A year or so back I found out that I got passed over for an embedded job because I had a big emphasis for Rust on my side projects and they thought it was a toy GCed language and a weird anachronism to put on there.

known to who though? I just told a long time C++ dev about Rust during a discussion about programming languages. He'd never heard of it before, and was quite interested.

There are still quite a few folks out there who don't know about Rust, Go, or anything else that's gotten popular over the past few years here.
