That makes no sense. It was much longer than 10 years before people considered C to be tech debt for example. Idk if it will be 10 years exactly, but we are seeing better languages emerging (Swift 6, Mojo, probably others) that provide the same safety guarantees and performance/use case profiles as Rust, but are vastly more ergonomic and lovely to use. I fear Linux was hasty integrating Rust because it will likely prevent them from integrating something better in the near future.

You’re the one that said ten years.

You're the one who said "ten years since Rust 1.0"

Right, that’s when Rust was new and shiny. People who chase the latest new shiny thing don’t consider ten year old technology new and shiny, they’d have moved on years ago.

The person who they replied to stated a decade. This whole thing is pretty clear cut and dry.

I said ten years from now...
