Выпуск Rust 1.96. Оценка пригодности Rust для создания прошивок к микроконтроллерам

Опубликован релиз языка программирования Rust 1.96, основанного проектом Mozilla, но ныне развиваемого под покровительством независимой некоммерческой организации Rust Foundation. Язык сфокусирован на безопасной работе с памятью и предоставляет средства для достижения высокого параллелизма выполнения заданий, при этом обходясь без использования сборщика мусора и runtime (runtime сводится к базовой инициализации и сопровождению стандартной библиотеки).
